Anthropic shipped five domain-specific finance plugins for Cowork, covering equity research, investment banking, private equity, wealth management, and financial analysis. The real move here is cross-application context – Claude can now chain workflows across Excel and PowerPoint without losing state, letting an analyst go from earnings data to updated model to finished deck in one session. FactSet and MSCI integrations bring institutional-grade data directly into the environment, while LSEG and S&P Global contributed their own plugins. Every major AI lab is now racing to embed inside finance workflows, but Anthropic targeting specific desk functions rather than generic enterprise productivity feels like a deliberate land-and-expand play aimed at compliance-sensitive firms that need narrow, auditable tooling.
