On November 10, 2026, Anthropic launched Claude Sheets and Whiteboards in beta, and renamed Dashboards to Claude Data as it became generally available. Teams gain new ways to work with spreadsheets, ideas and metrics inside Claude. Access is offered on paid plans; individual Data features remain in beta.

Sheets: check the features you need first

The Sheets guide clarifies that mobile offers only basic read-only access, despite the announcement’s general reference to mobile support. Editing is supported on web and desktop. Pivot tables, protected ranges, macros and Power Query are unavailable; Sheets cannot pull live data from connected apps. You can export to XLSX or CSV.

Our recommendation: start with a copy of a small working list. Check formulas and the total manually, then open the exported file in your usual application. Do not move your record-keeping simply because a demonstration sheet looks convincing.

Whiteboards: check the context

Whiteboards supports organizing ideas together and turning a board into a document or presentation. At launch, Claude works from the board’s contents without context from connected apps.

For example, after planning a promotion, check owners and dates against your team’s agreements. An AI-proposed plan still needs your decision.

Who can see Claude Data results

The Data guide explains that beta live sharing lets colleagues in your organization see only results of queries approved for the dashboard, even without source access. Certified queries are also in beta. Check the audience and displayed data before sharing.

On Team, all three products are on by default. On Enterprise, Sheets and Whiteboards are off by default; Data is due to turn on on November 19 unless an owner previously saved a setting. Its two beta features are off by default there. Work in these products counts toward plan usage limits.
