No Docker. No command line. No developer required. Pick your platform and go.
◈ beta product — anthropic
Not sure if this is the right place to start? Claude CoWork is Anthropic's own desktop app — the company that makes Claude. You download it like any other app, sign in with your Claude account, point it at a folder, and describe what you want in plain English. No coding. No setup headaches. No technical knowledge required.
It's the right starting point for most people. If you eventually want an AI agent that lives entirely on your computer — that's what the OpenClaw guide covers. But start here.
