Anthropic has introduced a new research function in its artificial intelligence model Claude, allowing the system to independently carry out investigations in several stages. Claude can deliver a well continued answer with verifiable quotes in a few minutes, aimed at finding a “speed and quality balance”.
The AI startup indicates that Claude responds to “agents” guests, independently determining the information he must then enter to create the right answer. He “automatically explores the different angles of your question and systematically works on open issues,” said Anthropic in his press release.
The research feature is currently at the start of the beta version and is accessible by users of the Max, team or company of Claude in the United States, Japan and Brazil. It is available directly in the Claude interface once activated in the account settings.
Anthropic's news follows similar announcements this year from Openai, Google and Microsoft, which also add autonomous search capacities to their owner chatbots. Note: Anthropic published this month a study showing that his DEEPSEEK Claude and R1 model can sometimes make explanations of their internal reasoning process.

Claude's new Google integrations
In addition to the launch of the research, Anthropic has also unveiled two new Google integrations for Claude: AI can now connect to the Gmail and Google calendar of a user to provide more useful and context responses. These additions are based on the integration of Google Docs which was first Unveiled in November.
According to Anthropic, once access to the Google workspace activated, Claude can surface meeting notes or elements of action hidden in emails and calendar events. This eliminates the need for users to manually download files before hiring the chatbot.

Integrations can even be used in accordance with research capacity. For example, he could alert a parent if a commitment to his calendar will come up against an event listed on the website of his child's school or if a bad weather is expected. As with research, Claude provides quotes when using the integration of Google Workspace, clearly showing exactly where he obtained the information used in his response.
Google workspace integrations are currently only available for paid anthropic users under a beta form via their profile settings. If on a team or a corporate plan, administrators must first activate Google Workspace Access Domain across the field before individual users can connect their accounts.
Increased generation recovery with file search
Anthropic also deploys a Google Docs cataloging function for business administrators who use increased recovery generation techniques. This essentially allows him to search for an entire document ecosystem to find relevant information, without obliging users to specify exact file locations.
Thus, even if the desired information is buried deep in a long or long or long forgotten document, or only becomes obvious thanks to a model distributed on several files, Claude can always recover it. Anthropic says he uses “business quality security” to protect the organizational data in which he dives.
Claude is not the first chatbot AI to receive google workspace integration, as Gemini And the Chatppt also offers them, while Microsoft Copilot Can also access Microsoft 365 applications such as Word, Excel and Outlook. Despite the cat in the total number of user numbers, Anthropic positions Claude as a competitive business tool by widening its functionality functionality and integration capacities.
