Claude Dashboards and Motion enable users to create live, query-backed data dashboards and code-driven video explainers directly from natural language prompts.
What the product does and how it is positioned
Claude Dashboards and Claude Motion are beta capabilities designed to turn natural-language prompts into live business intelligence views and animated presentations. Dashboards connects directly to cloud data warehouses and CRM systems, letting users ask exploratory questions and receive automatically refreshed visual charts accompanied by their underlying queries.
Claude Motion transforms written reports, deck charts, and onboarding materials into code-based animations that play like short videos. Because it renders animations through programmatic code rather than AI video diffusion models, users retain fine-grained control over text, figures, and timing before exporting the output as MP4 video or moving it to external production tools.
Source-supported ways to use the product
Connecting data warehouses or Salesforce to ask exploratory questions like comparing periodic signups without writing SQL manually.
Converting quarterly reports or static board deck charts into 30-second animated video explainers for all-hands meetings.
Generating short animated walkthroughs from product prompts, editing the pacing and text, and exporting as MP4 files.
Claude Dashboards establishes direct connections to enterprise data infrastructure, including Amazon Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, Databricks, and Snowflake, as well as CRM platforms like Salesforce. When users submit exploratory questions in plain language, Claude queries the data source, constructs the dashboard, and keeps the metrics refreshed as underlying records change.
To preserve analytical integrity, users can click any number to view the underlying database query, see when the chart was last refreshed, or ask Claude to explain the query logic. For workflows requiring deeper analytical exploration, dashboards can be transferred directly into third-party analytics platforms, including Amplitude, Grafana, Hex, Mixpanel, Omni, Perplexity, PostHog, and Sigma.
Claude Motion generates animations programmatically by writing code to move text, charts, shapes, and images. Because it avoids video generation models, it produces no synthetic video footage or AI-generated human avatars, focusing entirely on animating the user's data and visual elements.
The code-based structure allows users to adjust wording, numerical figures, and timing directly in the editor or by prompting Claude. Once finalized, the animation can be downloaded as an MP4 file or transferred to video editing applications including Adobe, Descript, HeyGen, Higgsfield, invideo, Luma AI, and Runway.

What was checked and when
Answers based on the source-checked product record
Claude Dashboards connects to data platforms including Amazon Redshift, BigQuery, ClickHouse, Databricks, and Snowflake, as well as CRM platforms like Salesforce.
No. Claude Motion writes code to animate text, charts, shapes, and images, and does not use video generation models, generated video footage, or AI-generated people.
Yes. Users can click any number to inspect the query behind it, ask Claude to explain the query, and view the timestamp showing when the chart was last refreshed.
Animations can be downloaded as MP4 files or opened directly in tools such as Adobe, Descript, HeyGen, Higgsfield, invideo, Luma AI, and Runway.
No. Dashboards and Motion are off by default for Enterprise organizations and must be manually enabled by an administrator under Organization settings in the Artifacts tab.
