"Anthropic is ramping up its efforts to court new customers in the finance sector with a suite of upgrades for Claude, including an integration with Microsoft Excel, seven new market data connectors, and six new Agent Skills. The upgrades arrive at a time when Anthropic is leaning more heavily into its partnership with Microsoft, and when the finance sector is being reshaped by the ongoing rise of generative AI tools."
"Anthropic announced Monday that Claude can now be integrated directly with Microsoft Excel, allowing users to interact with it via a sidebar that appears on an open spreadsheet (like Clippy -- RIP -- just a little smarter). For example, users can prompt the chatbot to answer questions about spreadsheet data, modify them while preserving the overall structure, or create entirely new spreadsheets."
"Claude also now comes with seven new connectors, each of which directly links the chatbot with a financial services platform, allowing it to pull data from them in real time. A connector with the financial research platform Aiera, for example, gives Claude access to transcripts of company"
