Anthropic releases Claude for Foundation Models, a Swift package allowing developers to integrate Claude as a server-side language model directly into Apple's native framework.
Anthropic has launched Claude for Foundation Models, an open-source Swift package that integrates Claude into Apple's native Foundation Models framework. Conforming to the native LanguageModel protocol, it allows developers to call Claude using the same LanguageModelSession API they use for local Apple Intelligence models. Requests go directly from the client app to the Claude API, keeping Apple out of the request path, with usage billed to the developer's Anthropic account.
Anthropic is making a play for the hearts and minds of Apple developers by integrating directly with Apple's new native AI framework, offering a unified developer experience.
* Frictionless hybrid setups: Developers can easily mix on-device models and server-side Claude calls using the exact same APIs.
* Direct connection: Bypassing Apple's servers preserves direct billing and API relationship with Anthropic.
* Ecosystem play: Getting native support early makes Claude the default server-side LLM choice for developers adopting Apple's new APIs.
