Anthropic has expanded the directory of connected services for its Claude AI chatbot, now supporting accounts on 15+ lifestyle apps, including AllTrails, Audible, Booking.com, Instacart, Intuit Credit Karma, Intuit TurboTax, Resy, Spotify, StubHub, Taskrabbit, Thumbtack, TripAdvisor, Uber, Uber Eats, and Viator.
Additional services will be added in the future, as Anthropic continues to enhance Claude’s third-party integrations. This expansion marks a shift from professional and educational use cases—where Claude’s connectors have been focused for the past year—to personal applications, enabling the chatbot to execute more complex tasks on behalf of users.
For example, Claude can now plan a hike on AllTrails and generate a Spotify playlist tailored to the duration of your trek. The AI assistant dynamically suggests relevant apps within conversations, streamlining workflows without requiring users to switch between programs.
Anthropic emphasized that Claude will always seek user confirmation before performing actions such as securing reservations or making purchases, ensuring transparency and control.
