Claude Whiteboards
Most whiteboard sessions end with a photo nobody opens again. Anthropic's pitch for Whiteboards is that Claude is in the room for the brainstorm and does the tidying before the meeting ends.
What it is
A shared board inside Claude, in beta since November 10, 2026. People add notes, Claude groups them by theme, and it can draft action items per person. You can also talk a messy plan through out loud and have Claude turn it into a timeline with owners and dates.
One detail we like: drag a box around part of the board and ask Claude about just that region. On a crowded board, that is the difference between a useful answer and a summary of everything.
Availability
- Beta on Pro, Max, Ultra, Team and Enterprise. Not on the free plan.
- Web, desktop and mobile.
- Team: on by default. Enterprise: off until an owner enables it under Organization settings, then Artifacts.
It is a staged rollout. On launch afternoon the paid account we checked had Sheets but no Whiteboards template yet, so do not assume something is broken if yours is missing too.
A retro in four moves
- Start a board and share it with the team.
- Give everyone five minutes to add notes. No discussion yet.
- Ask Claude to group the notes by theme and name each group. Argue with the grouping; that argument is the retro.
- Ask for action items with an owner on each, then have Claude turn the board into a doc.
Where the board goes afterwards
Claude can turn a finished board into a doc or a slide deck. Anthropic also says a board can move into Lucid, Miro or Vani by Zoho so the team can keep working there. That is an unusual thing for a launch post to say, and a fair signal about where Anthropic thinks this fits: the first hour of a plan, not the permanent home of your product roadmap.
Whiteboards also runs inside Claude Meetings, where the board builds while people talk. That part is limited to Team and Enterprise on Google Meet.
What is missing from the announcement
- Any mention of templates, voting, timers or the facilitation tools dedicated whiteboard apps have.
- Limits on board size or number of collaborators.
- Whether people without a Claude seat can view a board.
