Anthropic announced the release of Claude Design, a new product that enables users to collaborate with the Claude AI model to produce polished visual work such as designs, prototypes, slides, and more. The tool is powered by Claude Opus 4.7, Anthropic’s most capable vision model, and is currently available in research preview for Claude Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users. The rollout is being conducted gradually throughout the day.
Claude Design is designed to support both experienced designers and non-designers by allowing users to describe their needs and have Claude generate a first version. From there, users can refine the output through conversation, inline comments, direct edits, or custom sliders created by Claude. The tool also automatically applies a team’s design system to all projects, ensuring consistency with the company’s overall design language.
Teams have used Claude Design for various purposes, including creating realistic prototypes, product wireframes, design explorations, pitch decks, and marketing collateral. The tool allows users to start from text prompts, uploaded files, or by pointing Claude at a codebase, and it can even capture elements directly from a website.
