Claude Whiteboards, Sheets and Data Are Rolling Out: What You Can Build With Them (2026)
Claude Whiteboards, Sheets and Data are rolling out on paid plans. What each one does, who gets it, and how to track form responses in a sheet.
Josue HernandezAI Specialist
Claude Whiteboards, Claude Sheets and Claude Data are three new artifact types inside Claude. On November 10, 2026, Anthropic started rolling them out, together with an upgrade to interactive connectors. In short, you can plan on a board, track work in a sheet and build dashboards without leaving the chat.
The rollout is gradual, so you may not see every feature yet. Here is what each one does and what it means for teams that collect data with forms.
What Anthropic announced on November 10
Anthropic's product page covers three tools and one upgrade. Whiteboards and Sheets launch in beta. Claude Data is the new name for Claude Dashboards, and it is now generally available.
Claude Whiteboards
Claude Whiteboards is a shared board where your team brainstorms with Claude. You talk through a messy plan, and Claude turns it into a board with a timeline, owners and dates. Your team edits it in real time.
For example, in a retro meeting everyone adds notes. Then Claude groups them by theme and drafts the action items for each person. When you are done, Claude can turn the board into a doc or a deck. Or you can move it to Lucid or Miro.
Claude Sheets
Claude Sheets builds a spreadsheet from a prompt. Anthropic's examples are a campaign tracker and a hiring budget. Each sheet can have tabs, formulas, formatting and drop-downs. Claude edits in the cells and outlines each edit, so you can track the changes. You can also share a sheet and keep building it with your team.
However, Anthropic says sheets have simple spreadsheet features for now. For the full power of Excel, you export to .xlsx or CSV, or use Claude for Excel.
Claude Data
Claude Data needs a data connector, such as a warehouse or a CRM. It reads tools like Amazon Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, Snowflake and Salesforce. What is new:
- Certified queries (beta): your data team approves the metric definitions everyone should use. Charts built on them carry a "certified" badge.
- Data stories: Claude drafts data stories or narrated videos from your metrics, for you to review before you share them.
- Live sharing (beta): colleagues see current numbers in a shared dashboard, even without access to its connectors.
- Tracked changes: you see who edited a dashboard and can roll back to an earlier version.
Dashboards also support caching and design systems now.
Interactive connectors open the full tool
Interactive connectors already showed a small live view of a tool in the chat. Now, where a connector supports it, the whole tool opens beside your conversation or in full screen. You can work in it yourself or ask Claude to make changes, and you approve those actions as you do for any connector.
Examples include Adobe, Atlassian, Box, HubSpot and Notion.
Who can use Claude Whiteboards, Sheets and Data
All three are on every paid plan and work on web, desktop and mobile. On Team plans, they are on by default. On Enterprise plans, Whiteboards and Sheets start off, and Claude Data turns on by default on November 19, 2026. Admins change this in Organization settings, under Artifacts.
Interactive connectors are different. They roll out on web and desktop on all plans, as part of the new Claude experience. Claude Meetings is coming soon, with no date yet.
What it means for teams that collect data with forms
The key idea is shared context. Anthropic says an idea can move from a whiteboard to a spreadsheet to a dashboard without repeating the details. For teams that run on form data, that maps to a common week:
- Plan on a board. Sketch your hiring process or lead funnel in Claude Whiteboards, with owners and dates.
- Track in a sheet. Ask Claude Sheets for the tracker: one row per candidate or lead, with a status drop-down.
- Report in Claude Data. Once leads sit in a CRM, a data connector can turn them into a dashboard your manager opens.
However, a tracker is only as good as the answers that fill it. That is where a form your agent builds and scores helps.
Try it with dForms
dForms is the form builder for AI agents. Connect it to Claude with the dForms MCP at mcp.dforms.ai. Then Claude can create, publish and update forms, list responses and read analytics. To score the answers first, see our guide to a form with scoring. Then paste a prompt like this one:
Read the responses to my "Sales lead intake" form in dForms.
Build a Claude Sheet with one row per lead: name, company,
budget, timeline, total score and a status drop-down
(New, Contacted, Qualified, Lost).
Sort the rows by score, highest first.
Sheets is still rolling out, so we have not run this flow end to end yet. Without Sheets, Claude can still read the responses and summarize them in the chat. For the full setup, read how to create a form with Claude. You can also start free on dForms.
