What it does

Claude Desktop is Anthropic's app for chatting with Claude on macOS, Windows and Linux (beta). Besides chat, it can use desktop extensions to reach local files and apps, and on paid plans it includes Claude Code for coding and Claude Cowork for longer tasks on your computer. Conversations sync with the web and mobile apps. It suits people who use Claude often and want it one shortcut away.

Quick entry and desktop extensions let Claude work with the files and apps on your computer, not only in a browser tab.
