Anthropic launches Claude Design, challenges Figma

Anthropic has launched Claude Design, an AI tool that transforms conversational prompts into visual prototypes, designs, and marketing collateral. This marks a significant expansion beyond its core language model business, directly competing with established design software companies like Figma and Adobe. Powered by the new Claude Opus 4.7 vision model, the tool aims to streamline the creative process from idea to production-ready code within Anthropic's ecosystem. The launch also introduces Claude Opus 4.7, a powerful vision model with enhanced capabilities, while a more advanced, restricted model called Claude Mythos Preview is being developed for cybersecurity applications.
