Claude is an AI tool you talk to in plain language, on the web, in an app, or on your phone. You give it text, emails, documents, spreadsheets, PDFs and images, and it can read them, answer, summarise, plan and draft. Your assistant needs a Claude Pro plan or higher, which is where the connectors and the working room it relies on live.
The beauty of Claude is that you can connect your other digital accounts where one is available, such as Google, Slack, OneDrive and many more. What makes it special is that a paid plan lets Claude work with your real email, your calendars and your other online tools, wherever a connector exists.
With any Claude, nothing connected
Talk to it in plain language and paste in emails, documents, spreadsheets, PDFs and images.
Draft and rewrite emails, messages, plans, lists and documents.
Summarise long things you paste in, and research and explain in plain terms.
Remember how you like to work, from a short preference file you give it once.

Skills
Skills you can use and customise
A skill is a saved set of instructions Claude follows for a particular task. Use the ready-made ones, change them to fit how you work, or work with your assistant to write your own. Each one is a plain file, so nothing is locked.
Documents and files Built in
Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF. Create, edit and format them.
Creative and design
Design work and visual assets, based on your own digital assets and brand guidelines.
Business and operations
Status reports, finance and month close, HR and legal support, which does not replace an expert, plus sales and marketing.
Development and technical
Build and test web apps, write code, and set up integrations.
Data and research
Analyse data, research a question, and summarise long material.
Home and personal
Routines, planning and reminders, written to how your household runs.
The facts. Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF are built in. Anthropic publishes a set of example skills, and there is a public marketplace of thousands more to install. Every skill is a plain file you can open and change, or your assistant can help you write your own. Using and uploading skills in the Claude app is a paid plan feature, set up under Settings and Features. Only use skills from sources you trust.
The facts on connecting
What needs a connector, and what does not
Nothing connected. You paste things in and copy answers out. Claude cannot see your inbox or calendar on its own.
Microsoft 365, Outlook email and calendar. Reading email and calendar comes as standard. Sending and editing need write access turned on by an admin.
Google, Gmail and Calendar. Claude can read your mail and calendar, draft replies, and create or change events, and it asks before it sends.
Claude for Outlook, the add-in inside Outlook. In beta, and available on Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise.
Cowork, with a browser. Claude can work inside Outlook or Gmail on the web while you are signed in, clicking and typing for you and pausing for your approval before it sends. It uses a browser built into the desktop app, or your own Chrome if you prefer.
Claude drafts, you press send. It does not send anything on its own unless you give it full approval.

Not sure which fits?
This is the setup only. It does not include Claude itself, which the setup needs to run: you bring your own Claude account on Pro or higher and pay Anthropic for that separately. We sell to New Zealand customers only.
You keep everything, and it runs on your Claude, not ours.
Claude is a tool, not a professional. It does not replace a qualified accountant, lawyer, doctor, financial adviser or any other trained professional, and nothing it produces is advice. Use it to prepare, draft and understand, then take anything that matters to somebody qualified to sign it off.
Facts as at September 2026. Plan features and connector availability can change.

Rather think about it first?
