TOP STORY
🤝 Claude releases Blender, Adobe, and Autodesk integrations
Claude announced “Claude for Creative Work,” a new set of connectors that let Claude work directly inside your creative apps.
The first wave includes Blender, Autodesk Fusion, Adobe Creative Cloud (50+ apps), Ableton, Splice, Affinity, SketchUp, and Resolume.
What's a connector? Connectors are integrations that let Claude plug into other apps. Once added, Claude can do things directly inside that software (debug a Blender scene, modify a 3D model, search Splice samples) instead of just talking about it.
You can browse and add them from the Claude Connectors Directory, or by going to Settings → Connectors inside Claude.
From inside a Claude chat, you can now:
Debug a Blender scene, build new tools, or batch-apply changes across every object in a file.
Create and modify 3D models in Autodesk Fusion through plain conversation.
Reach into your Adobe, Ableton, and Splice projects directly from Claude.
Anthropic also joined the Blender Development Fund as a patron, putting money behind the open-source software that much indie 3D work runs on.
