Summary

Melvin Vivas reposts Anthropic's announcement of Claude Design with the comment "Designers are cooked." Claude Design is an Anthropic Labs product that turns a chat with Claude into prototypes, slide decks and one-pagers. It runs on Claude Opus 4.7, which Anthropic calls its most capable vision model. The 1:21 video has no speech, so everything here comes from the caption.

Key points

• Claude Design comes from Anthropic Labs. You describe what you want in conversation and Claude builds the design.
• It makes three kinds of output: interactive prototypes, slides/presentations and one-pagers.
• It runs on Claude Opus 4.7, which Anthropic calls its most capable vision model.
• At launch (April 2026) it was a research preview, rolling out over the day to Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans. The free tier was not included.
• The creator's take is "Designers are cooked": AI tools that create visual work by chat are starting to cover tasks designers usually do.
• The video has no narration, and the post includes no tutorial, prompts or links.
