Anthropic is introducing Claude, an AI chatbot, with a new subscription plan designed for business users who require more security and administrative controls. Claude Enterprise will compete with ChatGPT Enterprise, a business-specific product from OpenAI introduced about a year ago.
Businesses can upload confidential company information to Anthropic’s AI chatbot using Claude Enterprise. After that, Claude may perform information analysis, provide answers to queries, make basic web pages and visuals, and serve as an AI assistant tailored to a particular business.
Anthropic seems to be attempting to catch up to OpenAI by placing Claude wherever ChatGPT is now present. The startup has made available a handful of Claude usage options that closely resemble OpenAI’s current ChatGPT offerings.

Similar to the ChatGPT team plan, Anthropic’s Claude Team plan was introduced in May and enabled small businesses to work together on projects. Anthropic has been releasing Claude mobile apps for iOS and Android since the spring. It now faces competition from ChatGPT Enterprise, which is widely used by Fortune 500 businesses.
However, there are a few significant areas in which Anthropic’s enterprise solution differs from what is available. Firstly, Anthropic’s models can interpret up to 200,000 lines of code, dozens of 100-page papers, or a two-hour audio transcript in a single prompt because the context window on Claude Enterprise is 500,000 tokens. Less than half of that is offered by context windows in ChatGPT Enterprise and Claude’s Team plan.
Projects and Artifacts, Anthropic’s workspaces where many people can upload and edit content, are included with Claude Enterprise. In business scenarios where you may be working on a longer project with numerous data sources and participants, these functionalities could be helpful.

For technical teams to synchronize their GitHub repositories with Claude, the Enterprise plan additionally provides GitHub integration. Claude Sonnet 3.5 has seen a lot of use cases in the area of coding, and this connection allows Anthropic’s models to have direct access to the codebases of their clients. For example, this can help onboard a new engineer, develop a feature, or fix an issue.
Claude Enterprise, like ChatGPT’s Enterprise package, enables companies to choose a primary owner for their workplace. The owner can designate varying degrees of access to projects and data in Claude, as well as track activities throughout the system to ensure security and adherence to regulations.
Similar to OpenAI, Anthropic claims not to be using Claude Enterprise customer data for training. This is crucial for a lot of companies whose trade secrets they don’t want to wind up in ChatGPT’s or Claude’s knowledge base after six months.

But expanding uptake will be crucial. Anthropic and other AI model makers are under pressure to offer API access for ever-lower fees. Although products such as Claude Enterprise provide a revenue stream, their high inference costs must be compensated for by broad adoption. It’s unclear at this time whether any AI model creators are making money from these industry-specific strategies.
