Anthropic

Application

ClaudeApplication

Assistant for chat, document analysis and coding, used in the browser and in desktop and mobile apps.

Claude DesignApplication

Lets users collaborate with Claude to create on-brand visual work (decks, prototypes, wireframes, marketing collateral) with design-system import and Claude Code integration via /design-sync.

Claude ScienceApplication

Desktop application for scientific research that runs analyses, searches scientific databases and traces work from data wrangling through to publication.

Claude SecurityApplication

Application that scans codebases for high-severity vulnerabilities, validates findings by adversarial verification and recommends patches for review, with a companion Claude Code plugin.

Claude for Microsoft 365Application

Claude working inside Excel, PowerPoint, Word and Outlook with context carried across the documents — preserving templates and house styles and showing every edit as tracked changes, highlighted cells or draft emails.

Claude for SlackApplication

Claude tagged as @Claude inside Slack threads and channels: it reads thread context and replies in real time, analyses conversations, pulls data, drafts content, monitors channels, triages alerts and runs standing instructions without leaving Slack.

Developer tool

Claude Agent SDKDeveloper tool

Python and TypeScript library that runs the same agent loop, tools and context management that power Claude Code, so developers can embed the loop in their own process rather than calling the API directly.

DX

Application

DX AIApplication

DX AI is a conversational interface for exploring an organization's engineering data held in DX, described by the vendor as 'the copilot for engineering leaders.' It answers natural-language questions with generated charts, summarizes qualitative snapshot data into themes and sentiment, and diagnoses the drivers behind metric changes. Its data can also be streamed into external LLM clients via the DX MCP server.

Developer tool

AI Code InsightsDeveloper tool

AI Code Insights measures what AI coding agents produce inside an engineering organization, tracking AI-generated code by commit, PR, team, agent and repo from IDE to production. It attributes authorship by monitoring supported coding agents' edits and links them to commits, pull requests and deployments, reporting adoption, delivery velocity, code-quality signals and session-level agent performance. It includes the Agent Experience report, which scores requirements clarity, steering and task scope from the agent's perspective.

DX CLIDeveloper tool

Command-line interface to a DX instance, built so coding agents can drive it: it ships an agent skill telling an agent when and how to call the CLI, and covers the same catalog, scorecard and self-service operations a human uses the dashboard for.

FabricDeveloper tool

Fabric is DX's context layer for AI agents, marketed as 'the context engine for AI-native engineering.' It turns an organization's software catalog into structured, live context that agents can query, and adds scorecards and self-service automation so agents can create services, provision infrastructure and resolve failing standards checks. Context is exposed to any MCP-compatible agent via the DX MCP server.

No counterpart

Anthropic sells these in a stack layer with no product recorded for DX yet — nothing on the other side to compare them against.

AI agent

Claude CodeAI agent

Coding agent that works on a codebase from the terminal, an IDE extension and a desktop app.

Claude CoworkAI agent

Agentic task app in which Claude works asynchronously across a user's files and tools toward a stated goal, checked in on from desktop, web or phone.

Claude in ChromeAI agent

Browser extension that lets Claude act inside Chrome on the user's behalf — reading pages, clicking, typing and filling forms to work through multi-step web tasks without approving each step, with the user keeping control of what it may do.

Agent platform

Claude Managed AgentsAgent platform

Hosted API offering a pre-built configurable agent harness with managed sandboxes and persistent sessions for long-running asynchronous agent tasks, billed separately from token usage.

Model API

Claude APIModel API

Hosted API for the Claude models, billed per token.

API service

DX MCP ServerAPI service

The DX MCP server exposes a customer's DX data to MCP-compatible AI clients such as Claude, Cursor and Devin Desktop. It is deliberately read-only, offering tools to list and retrieve software catalog entities, scorecards and initiatives, and teams, plus execution of SQL queries against the DX Data Cloud PostgreSQL database. It is available as a DX-hosted remote endpoint at ai.getdx.com/mcp or run locally from DX's open-source dx-mcp-server repository.
