Anthropic, a provider of GenAI models and applications, has announced the launching of its GenAI assistant, Claude, in Europe. The AI assistant comes with a subscription-based variant named "Claude Pro" and is available through an iPhone app or the web. Subscription costs for its business-oriented service, Claude Team, start at EUR 28 (USD 30) per month.

Claude, Anthropic's AI assistant, offers a range of models, one of them being Claude 3 Opus, its most advanced offering. This service features high fluency in multiple European languages, including French, Spanish, German, and Italian.

Analyst QuickTake: Claude's presence in Europe is significant given that the region values stringent AI regulations and emphasizes ethics. Earlier this year, the European Union Parliament passed the groundbreaking AI Act, which establishes regulations for the use of AI technology. These rules aim to categorize the risks associated with AI and apply appropriate guidelines accordingly.
