Anthropic Launches 'Smart Reports' Letting Managers Analyze Workers' Claude Usage
Anthropic has introduced a feature called Smart Reports that lets managers generate summaries of how their teams use Claude at work, including cost and output data. The company says employee sessions will be anonymized, though it previously faced criticism after anonymized data from another product was reportedly de-anonymized using large language models.

The tool could give employers new visibility into how staff use AI tools on the job, which may raise workplace privacy concerns given Anthropic's past anonymization issues. The release appears timed to Anthropic's push for enterprise contracts, which reportedly make up roughly 80 percent of its business, suggesting the company sees corporate monitoring features as key to its growth ahead of a potential IPO.
