🟧 Anthropic & Claude¶
Status: 🔜 Coming soon
Tier: 1 — Partner + competitor
Overview¶
Anthropic builds Claude — known for safety-first AI, massive context windows (1M+ tokens), and coding excellence. Critically, Anthropic is now a Microsoft subprocessor for M365 Copilot, and they invented the MCP protocol you already know.
