One conversation across Claude for Excel and PowerPoint

Claude can now work across your open Excel and PowerPoint files in a single continuous session — reading live cell values, building out analysis, updating slides, and carrying full context across both apps without losing track. An analyst asks Claude to pull comparable company financials, build a trading comps table in Excel, drop the valuation summary into the pitch deck, and draft a summary — all from one prompt, without switching tabs or re-explaining the dataset at each step. Skills let teams save that workflow and run it again in one click. Claude for Excel and PowerPoint are available to all paid plan users on Mac and Windows, and via Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud's Vertex AI, and Microsoft Foundry.
