Claude brings cross-app memory to Microsoft 365
Anthropic just rolled out Claude for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word to general availability, alongside a public beta for Outlook across all paid plans. The standout feature is persistent context across all four apps—adjust a metric in Excel, and linked charts in PowerPoint and figures in Word update automatically without re-explaining the task. Why it matters: it turns Microsoft 365 into an interconnected workspace where your AI follows your entire workflow.
