Claude.ai now offers a feature called Projects for Pro and Team users, allowing them to organize chats into shareable, structured sets of knowledge and activities. Each project includes a 200K context window, equivalent to a 500-page book, enabling users to include relevant documents, code, and files. This feature enhances Claude's ability to generate ideas, make strategic decisions, and produce exceptional results.
Key Features of Projects
- Privacy and Sharing: All chats are private by default. However, users on the Claude Team plan can share snapshots of conversations in a shared project activity feed.
- Custom Instructions: Users can set custom instructions within each project to tailor Claude's responses, such as using a formal tone or answering from a specific industry perspective.
- Artifacts: This feature allows users to generate and edit content like code snippets, text documents, graphics, and website designs, which appear in a dedicated window alongside the conversation. Artifacts enhance coding capabilities with a larger code window and live previews.
Benefits
- Avoid Cold Start Problem: Projects ground Claude’s outputs in internal knowledge, making it easier to start tasks quickly and extend skills across various tasks.
- Inspiration and Skill Uplift: Sharing snapshots of conversations helps team members get inspired and improve their skills in working with AI.
- Enhanced Collaboration: By integrating Claude into existing team processes, users can save time and elevate their work quality.
This new Projects feature from Claude.ai arrives shortly after Anthropic unveiled Claude 3.5 Sonnet, their latest AI model that's setting new standards in benchmark performance.
