Early look at Anthropic's Claude Science app for researchers

Anthropic is developing a specialized Claude Science app designed for researchers, offering early access to features that aim to accelerate scientific discovery through AI-powered analysis and data processing capabilities.

Background

Anthropic — the AI company behind the Claude model family — is developing a dedicated "Claude Science" app aimed at researchers, first spotted via code on its website. This is separate from the general Claude chatbot and appears designed for scientific workflows (data analysis, literature review, paper drafting). It follows Anthropic's broader push into enterprise and specialized tools, including a "Claude for Work" plan and custom model fine-tuning. The app signals competition with specialized research tools from OpenAI (ChatGPT for research) and Google (Gemini for scientists), as well as domain-specific platforms like Elicit or Scite. No official launch date has been announced yet.
