Claude Expands Beyond Chat as Anthropic Pushes Deeper Into Work Tools
Anthropic has expanded its Claude AI chatbot into a more interactive workplace hub by launching a suite of integrated interactive apps. These integrations let users access popular productivity tools directly within Claude’s chat interface, enabling real-time work without switching between apps.
Claude now supports interactive access to workplace tools like Slack, Asana, Figma, Canva, Box, and more inside the chat interface.
Users can draft messages, manage projects, design visuals, and build data charts without leaving Claude.
The functionality is powered by the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard for app-AI integration.
These features are available to paid Claude subscribers (Pro, Team, Max, Enterprise) and not to free users.
A deeper integration with Anthropic’s Claude Cowork agent tool is planned, promising even more powerful workflows.
This update signals a shift from siloed AI chatbots toward AI-driven work platforms that reduce context switching and centralize task execution. For project managers, that means easier coordination across tools (like Slack and Asana) and faster turnaround on deliverables because planning, communication, design, and reporting can now happen in a single conversational interface. As teams increasingly adopt AI-augmented workflows, mastering tools like Claude can streamline project execution and improve cross-team collaboration. Read More
UPCOMING MEETUP: The Missing Link—Adding Your Data to Your App Without Writing Code
The Missing Link: Adding Your Data to Your App Without Writing Code is a virtual session hosted by the All Things AI (Live) community, designed to help builders connect frontend interfaces to backend workflows using no-code tools. The meetup focuses on practical techniques for capturing, mapping, and automating data flows without traditional coding skills.
Event Details:
Meetup Theme: The Missing Link: Adding Your Data to Your App Without Writing Code. This is a hands-on session about integrating user data into functional workflows without writing backend code.
Speaker / Host: Hosted by Mark H., one of the organizers of the All Things AI (Live) meetup group.
Date & Time: Tuesday, February 24, 2026 at 12:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST).
Location: Online (virtual event). Attendees can join remotely from anywhere via a Meetup event link.
Event Topic & Focus: The session covers no-code automation, including connecting front-end tools like Softr and Zoho Forms to automation platforms such as Make.com, capturing data with webhooks, mapping information, and building multi-step workflows to trigger emails, CRM updates, and document generation.
Why This Event is Important: This event is especially relevant for entrepreneurs, product builders, and no-code developers looking to turn simple interfaces into fully automated systems without needing backend engineering skills. By focusing on practical workflows and real tools used in modern apps, attendees gain actionable strategies that can speed up development and improve how data flows through their tech stack.
PMNA TUTORIAL: How to Automate Stakeholder Feedback Collection & Tagging Using Make.com
Stakeholder and user feedback is critical for product decisions, but it’s often messy, scattered, and hard to act on. This workflow shows how PMs can use Make.com to automatically collect feedback from forms, tag it by theme, and route it to the right team or tool. The result is structured, actionable insights without manual triage.
You’ll learn to:
Define the types of feedback to collect
Create a standardized feedback intake form
Set up a Notion or Airtable database to store responses
Use Make.com to automatically capture new feedback submissions
Apply rules or logic to auto-tag feedback by theme or type
Route feedback to the appropriate team or tool (Jira, ClickUp, Notion)
Notify relevant stakeholders automatically via Slack or Email
Maintain feedback status as it moves through the lifecycle
Build filtered views for prioritization and decision-making
Optionally enhance with sentiment analysis or AI summarization
Why it matters:
Automating feedback collection and tagging turns scattered input into actionable insights. PMs gain faster visibility into stakeholder needs, improve prioritization, and ensure feedback drives real product decisions, all without extra manual work. It’s a system that scales as teams and products grow.
Airtable Launches Superagent to Bring AI Agents to Workflow Platforms
Airtable has launched Superagent, a new standalone AI agent designed to orchestrate multiple specialist models working in parallel to generate interactive, decision-ready reports. This marks the company’s first product separate from its core no-code platform and signals a strategic push into the AI agent space at a time when its market valuation has significantly reset.
Superagent coordinates multiple specialized AI models to handle complex tasks in parallel, not sequentially.
Instead of basic text responses, it delivers interactive outputs like filterable demographic breakdowns and competitive maps.
It draws on premium data sources such as FactSet, Crunchbase, and SEC filings for verifiable insights.
Superagent is Airtable’s first independent product outside its traditional no-code platform.
Pricing is expected to follow tiered AI product models with entry plans around $20 per user per month.
The launch of Superagent represents Airtable’s broader transition toward AI-driven capabilities that extend beyond simple workflow tools to intelligent systems that can handle research, analysis, and reporting. By delivering interactive, structured outputs rather than raw text, Superagent aims to make complex information more usable and immediately actionable. This move reflects the increasing focus across the software industry on AI agents that can automate deeper knowledge work and support decision-making at enterprise scale. Read More
UPCOMING MEETUP: Ask Us Anything About AI
The Ask Us Anything About AI event is a live, interactive meetup designed for people interested in artificial intelligence — from builders to business leaders and curious learners alike. Rather than a traditional presentation, the session focuses on open-format questions and dialogue with experienced AI practitioners.
Event Details:
Meetup Theme: Ask Us Anything About AI is an open Q&A session where attendees can pose their own questions about real-world AI practice, success factors, and challenges.
Speaker / Host: The session is hosted by Mark H., with participation from experienced AI practitioners who build, deploy, and advise on AI systems.
Date & Time: Wednesday, February 11, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM EST.
Location: Loading Dock – Beryl Road, 3915 Beryl Road, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA. It is an in-person meetup venue in Raleigh’s tech community.
Audience & Focus: Designed for technology and business leaders, builders, product teams, and others involved in AI decisions. Topics include what’s working (and failing) in AI, moving from pilots to production, ROI of generative AI and automation, strategic pitfalls, and skills teams need today.
Why This Event is Important: This event is especially relevant for anyone navigating the fast-moving world of AI, whether you’re implementing systems, leading teams, or simply trying to make sense of industry hype versus reality. By providing direct access to practitioners who make real AI decisions, attendees can walk away with insights and clarity they may not get from online webinars or social platforms alone.
Doctective Is the Tool Built to Stop Documentation Drift in Software Projects
Doctective is an AI-powered documentation automation platform designed to keep software documentation accurate and in sync with source code changes. By integrating directly with GitHub, it analyzes pull requests in real time to detect outdated docs and recommends updates, helping teams reduce documentation drift and technical debt.
Automatic PR Analysis: Scans every pull request to spot documentation that may be affected by code changes.
Semantic Code-to-Doc Mapping: Builds a semantic link between code elements (like functions and APIs) and related docs for precise change detection.
AI-Powered Documentation Updates: Uses large language models to generate suggested updates that align with code context and style.
Companion Pull Request Generation: Automatically creates a suggested documentation update PR alongside the code changes.
Seamless GitHub Integration: Works within GitHub workflows, providing comments and recommendations directly in pull requests.
For project managers, Doctective is especially relevant because outdated or incorrect documentation can slow down teams, confuse stakeholders, and increase onboarding time for new developers. By automating the detection and updating of docs as changes are made in code, Doctective helps keep documentation reliable, reduces manual overhead, and supports smoother team collaboration — ultimately improving project predictability and software quality.
