Anthropic launches an AI chatbot plan for colleges and universities


Anthropic is launching Claude for Education, a competitor to OpenAI's ChatGPT Edu, to let higher education institutions access its AI chatbot, Claude.

With Learning Mode enabled, Claude will ask questions to test understanding, highlight fundamental principles behind specific problems, and provide potentially useful templates for research papers, outlines, and study guides. In a press release shared with TechCrunch ahead of launch, Anthropic said university administrators can use Claude to analyze enrollment trends and automate repetitive email responses to common inquiries. Anthropic says that it has already struck “full campus agreements” with Northeastern University, the London School of Economics and Political Science, and Champlain College to make Claude for Education available to all students.
