The Anthropic Economic Index Connector

Anthropic has launched the Economic Index connector for Claude, enabling users to query its AI labor-market dataset directly through natural language in claude.ai. The connector requires no installation and works across all Claude models, allowing queries such as which occupations use AI most, how task automation has shifted over the past year, and regional usage patterns. The underlying dataset tracks how Claude is actually being used across the economy and has previously served researchers, journalists, and policymakers; the connector makes the same data accessible to any user. Anthropic notes the Index reflects Claude usage patterns rather than the broader labor market, and the full datasets remain publicly available on its website.
