Available Templates
| Department | Use Cases |
|---|---|
| HR | Employee onboarding, policy Q&A, benefits analysis |
| Design | Asset management, design system queries, feedback compilation |
| Engineering | Code review, incident response, documentation |
| Operations | Process optimization, vendor management, compliance tracking |
| Financial Analysis | Report generation, data analysis, forecasting |
| Investment Banking | Deal analysis, market research, pitch preparation |
| Equity Research | Company analysis, earnings review, sector reports |
| Private Equity | Due diligence, portfolio monitoring, market scanning |
| Wealth Management | Client reporting, market updates, allocation analysis |
Guided Setup
Claude guides admins through the setup process by asking questions to tailor:
- Skills — What the assistant can do
- Commands — Custom slash commands for common tasks
- Connectors (MCPs) — Which data sources to connect
No coding required. Admins can start from a template and customize it to their company's specific needs.
Private Distribution
Enterprise admins can publish templates to their organization's private marketplace, controlling which teams can access which plugins. This ensures sensitive department-specific AI capabilities stay within appropriate teams.
