Anthropic is adding a gallery of ready-made legal tools to Claude, giving law departments a starting point for tasks like contract review, regulatory tracking, and handling requests from across a company. The launch follows feedback from legal teams using Claude for Legal, which debuted in May and has drawn requests for simpler setup and better ways to collaborate.
The gallery’s interactive artifacts are designed to work with a team’s own documents and sources. Claude can produce an initial review or organize information, while lawyers check the results and apply their judgment. Outputs link back to their sources, and each tool includes an example so teams can see how it works before adding their own materials.

Among the new tools are a cite checker that flags quotations, page numbers, and claims that do not line up with their sources; a jurisdiction matrix for comparing laws across regions; and a matter board that pulls open cases, owners, next steps, and deadlines from engagement letters, emails, or spreadsheets. Other artifacts compare contracts against a company playbook, track upcoming regulations, and extract selected terms from a batch of agreements.
Teams can customize the artifacts and connect them to existing systems, including research sources and internal playbooks. Anthropic says Claude for Legal now supports more than 60 legal connectors, among them Bloomberg Law, Filevine, Ivo, Legora, and Patlytics. Artifacts can also be shared with colleagues, clients, and partners, with privacy settings intended to support restrictions between teams. The full list of connectors is available in Claude’s legal directory.
Anthropic also worked with legal technology companies and law firms on tools for the gallery. Goodwin built an AI governance benchmark to help companies identify gaps in their approach. Harvey’s intake tool gives employees a place to send legal questions, answering routine requests from the department’s guidance and routing others to a lawyer. Foley & Lardner created an obligations checker for agreements, while PwC built a subpoena response tool that uses a team’s precedents and templates to draft responses for lawyers to review.
The company says it’s funding public interest groups developing tools for access to justice and legal education programs that teach future lawyers to build with Claude. It’s also launching a Legal Ambassadors Program for legal professionals to share knowledge with one another, and says additional gallery tools from Legora and Orrick are on the way.
