Anthropic PBC today announced it has acquired Vercept Inc., the startup behind Vy, a desktop tool that automates multistep tasks and interacts with local files; financial terms were not disclosed. Anthropic said the deal will bolster Claude’s computer-use capabilities, including features in the recently launched Claude Cowork desktop app, and Vercept has told customers it will sunset Vy within 30 days.
Scoring Rationale
Acquisition materially advances Claude's automation features, but the deal is incremental and lacking disclosed financial details.
