Build AI-Powered Apps with Claude Artifacts

Since its debut, Claude Artifacts has empowered millions of users—productivity enthusiasts, educators, and creative minds alike—to generate over half a billion custom AI artifacts. Today, Anthropic takes Artifacts to the next level by introducing an integrated “Artifacts” workspace within the Claude app and enabling you to embed live AI capabilities directly into your creations. Now, anyone can turn an idea into a fully interactive, shareable app without writing a single line of code.

What Are Claude Artifacts?

Artifacts are modular AI creations—think flashcard generators, brainstorming assistants, mini-games, or tailored productivity tools—that you design by simply chatting with Claude. Each Artifact encapsulates logic, prompts, and user interactions so you can:

  • Browse a curated gallery for inspiration
  • Customize existing Artifacts in minutes
  • Build from scratch via conversation
  • Organize your entire library in one place

From Static Tools to Interactive Apps

With the latest update, a single-use Artifact becomes a dynamic experience. For example, instead of generating a one-off set of flashcards on a fixed topic, you can now:

  1. Ask Claude: “Build me a flashcard app that lets users choose any topic and generate custom cards on demand.”
  2. Interact Live: End users pick their subject, tailor difficulty levels, and review cards—all within the same interface.
  3. Share Broadly: Publish your Artifact as a link so colleagues, students, or friends can access and use it instantly.

Inspiration from “The Way of Code”

Renowned music producer Rick Rubin explored this conversational paradigm in his project The Way of Code, pairing 81 guided meditations with interactive Claude Artifacts. By embedding mutable AI logic, Rubin demonstrated how chat-driven creation can itself become art—inviting anyone to remix and reshape each meditation experience.

Getting Started

  1. Open Claude and click the “Artifacts” icon in the sidebar (available on Free, Pro, and Max plans).
  2. Browse or Create: Select an existing Artifact to customize or start a new one by describing your idea to Claude.
  3. Embed AI Logic: Add conditional flows, user inputs, or external data hooks—all through simple prompts.
  4. Publish & Share: Generate a shareable link so others can view and interact with your app. (Viewers can sign in on any Claude plan.)

The embedded AI-powered features are currently in beta, and Anthropic invites feedback from the community as they refine these tools. To learn more about building and sharing interactive apps with Claude, check out the official docs here.
