Anthropic is making its Claude AI easier to access on mobile. The company has released a Claude mobile app for iOS that any user can download for free. Similar to the mobile web version of the chatbot, the app syncs users’ conversations with Claude across devices, allowing them to jump from a computer to the app (or vice versa) without losing their chat history. Users will also be able to upload files and images straight from their iPhone’s gallery — or take a photo on the spot — if they need Claude to process or analyze them in real time. They’ll be able to download and access the Claude app whatever plan they’re using, even if they’re not paying for the service.
If they do decide to pay for Claude, they now have a new option other than Pro. The new Team plan provides greater usage than the Pro tier so that members can have more conversations with the chatbot. It also enables users to process longer documents, such as research papers and contracts, thanks to its 200,000 context window. The Team plan gives users access to the Claude 3 model family, as well, which includes Opus, Sonnet and Haiku. It will cost subscribers $30 per user per month, with a minimum head count of five users per team.
Back in March, Anthropic claimed in a blog post that its Claude 3 language model had outperformed ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini in several key industry benchmarks. It was better at graduate-level reasoning, multilingual math and coding (among many other metrics), the company said, showing Claude 3’s benchmark results against its staunchest rivals. The most powerful Claude 3 model, the Opus, even apparently showed “near-human” abilities with rapid response rates that make it ideal for more complex and time-sensitive tasks.
