Claude Dashboards + Claude Motion Guide

On October 8, 2026, Anthropic launched Claude Dashboards and Claude Motion in beta. Dashboards turns your data into live charts. Motion turns charts and reports into short animated explainers.

Used together, they let you:

• Ask a business question in plain words
• Get a live dashboard you can check
• Pick the single chart that matters
• Turn that chart into a 30-second animation
• Share the result with leaders, clients, or your audience

Dashboards surface the insight. Motion makes it stick.

Claude Dashboards

In beta on the paid plans: Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise

Claude Motion

In beta on Team and Enterprise plans only

Enterprise

Both start switched off. Admins turn them on in Organization settings → Artifacts.

Using both requires a Team or Enterprise plan. Beta features may change.

Supported Dashboards data sources include BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks, Amazon Redshift, ClickHouse, and Salesforce.

• Grant read-only access
• Connect only the tables the work needs
• Agree on metric definitions up front

Using our Snowflake billing tables, build a live dashboard of monthly recurring revenue, new customers, and churn over the last 12 months. Show the query and refresh time on every chart.

Every chart carries its own SQL query and refresh time. Open the queries behind your key numbers before you rely on them.

Have Claude read the dashboard alongside you:

• What changed the most this period?
• What looks surprising?
• What explains the change?
• What should we do in response?

Animate a single insight, never the whole dashboard.

Type /motion, or pick Output → Motion in the message box, then write a brief:

Make a 30-second animation of the churn chart for our leadership meeting. Show churn dropping from 4.1% to 2.8%, then reveal the two reasons: faster onboarding and annual plans. Close on “Next: expand onboarding to all plans.” Use our navy and white brand colors.

Motion animates text, charts, shapes, and images as editable code. It does not create footage or AI people.

• Make edits in chat or in the built-in editor
• Change a single detail at a time
• Match every number to the dashboard
• Give each line enough screen time to read
• Strip sensitive data from shared versions

• Download Motion animations as MP4 files
• Share links, because animations start out private
• Send dashboard results on to Amplitude, Grafana, or Hex
• Pass animations to tools such as Adobe, Descript, HeyGen, Luma AI, or Runway

• Stay within your company’s data policies

Using [data source], build a live dashboard that answers: [business question]. Show the query and refresh time on every chart. Then name the single most important change and its likely causes, and wait for my confirmation. Once I confirm, make a [length]-second Motion animation of that insight for [audience], using exactly the dashboard’s numbers, in [brand colors], and ending with [takeaway].
