According to Claude (@claudeai) on Twitter, Claude now allows free plan users to create and edit files, expanding its practical capabilities for document management and workflow automation. The update also introduces skills and compaction to the free tier, enabling users to perform more complex and sustained tasks. Free users can now turn conversations directly into Excel spreadsheets, documents, PowerPoint slide decks, and PDFs, streamlining productivity and business operations. This move is expected to lower barriers for individuals and organizations seeking accessible AI-powered document solutions, as reported by Claude's official Twitter account.

According to The Rundown AI, Anthropic has expanded Claude's integration to support Excel, enabling more efficient data handling for business users. The report also highlights The Rundown Roundtable's discussion on practical AI use cases, the rapid creation of ads with Remotion, and notes that half of U.S. workers reportedly never use AI in their jobs. Additionally, four new AI tools and community workflows were introduced, reflecting ongoing innovation and business opportunities across the AI sector.
