Anthropic is reportedly planning to launch a voice mode for its Claude platform, with a new report from The Financial Times also detailing a dedicated push towards enterprise and business users over consumer markets. - CPO Mike Krieger revealed the company is targeting users who "spend all day in meetings or in Excel or Google Docs" with features to streamline workflows.
- A new launch in the coming months will analyze calendars and create detailed client reports from internal and external data, designed for meeting preparation.
- Krieger also revealed that Anthropic already has prototypes of voice experiences ready for Claude, calling it a “useful modality to have.”
- The company has reportedly explored partnerships with “a bunch of partners,” including Amazon and ElevenLabs, to accelerate the launch of voice for Claude.
Anthropic’s models have consistently been at the top of the industry ranks, but the startup has now set eyes on carving out a niche in the lucrative enterprise market instead of mass adoption — targeting a segment where companies are most willing to pay premium prices for productivity gains.
