Anthropic Launches Claude Dispatch: Remote Task Control for Desktop AI via Mobile
A snack-sized bagel for a snack-sized appetite.
Summary
Anthropic has launched Claude Dispatch, a feature that turns a user's mobile phone into a remote control for their desktop-based Claude AI. Users can assign complex, multi-step tasks (e.g., "pull last month's receipts into a spreadsheet") from anywhere and have the work completed asynchronously. This shifts the interaction model from synchronous chat to an "assign and walk away" paradigm, emphasizing that it's not AI running on the phone but rather a remote trigger for local desktop AI processing.
