Salesforce puts 37 prebuilt sales skills inside Claude for pilot customers

Salesforce and Anthropic announced Claudeforce on August 26, 2026 in San Francisco, an expanded strategic partnership whose first shipping component is a Salesforce plugin inside Claude carrying 37 prebuilt sales skills, available to select pilot customers ahead of an open beta scheduled for September 2026.
The announcement carries an unusual amount of product detail for a partnership release, and an unusual amount of ambiguity about who can actually use it. Salesforce and Anthropic described four separate strands of work: a Salesforce plugin running inside Claude, Claude running inside Salesforce products, Claude installed as the default model across Slack, and a reciprocal commercial arrangement in which each company becomes a significant customer of the other.
