Anthropic says partners get free Claude credits to analyze data, design experiments and build shared tools, aiming to produce open datasets and software.
Key Points
- Space Telescope Science Institute, which runs science operations for NASA's Hubble, James Webb and Roman telescopes, joins as an institutional partner.
- Anthropic says its Model Hardware Standard with HHMI Janelia, in research preview, lets AI agents safely operate lab instruments.
- Anthropic says the Allen Institute builds teams of AI agents that turn months of manual data analysis into hours.
