Anthropic’s Claude Science bets on workflow, not a new model, to win over scientists

Anthropic has introduced Claude Science, an AI-powered research workbench designed to centralize computational tasks for scientists. Rather than releasing a new specialized model, Anthropic is leveraging existing Claude models to provide a workflow-focused platform that integrates over 60 scientific databases and specialized toolkits. The system features multi-agent project management, automated fact-checking, and reproducible figure generation. By positioning itself as a productivity-focused operating layer for research, Anthropic aims to compete with platforms from OpenAI and Google DeepMind, offering its beta version to current subscription tiers while providing grants to support academic projects.
