## Summary

Anthropic has launched reporting tools to help companies assess what they get from spending on its AI products, including Claude Code. The tools aim to show the business value of AI use and help teams improve workflows, as companies face pressure to make rising costs worthwhile.

Managers can see what a team produced over a chosen period, how much it cost and where its workflows faltered, with recommendations for improvement. Anthropic says the data will not be used to train its models by default, and it is also introducing shared budgets for teams. A Jellyfish survey covering 276,000 customers found tools built on Anthropic models accounted for nearly a third of proposed code changes; spending on agentic coding tools had risen tenfold since the start of the year to about 2% of engineering costs.
