Claude Enterprise smart reports — what a team's Claude spend produced

Anthropic made smart reports, in-app surveys and pooled group budgets generally available for Claude Enterprise. Smart reports group a team's Claude work into workstreams and show the spend, the deliverables and where work got stuck.

Claude announcement card for smart reports, surveys and pooled group budgets in Claude Enterprise

Claude Enterprise admins can now see what each team got for its token spend, ask staff directly, and share one budget per group.

What is it?

Smart reports, in-app surveys and pooled group budgets became generally available for Claude Enterprise on 28 October 2026. An admin picks a team, a date range and products, and the report shows what that team worked on with Claude, what it delivered and what it cost.

How does it work?

Claude reads a sample of the team's transcripts and sorts the work into workstreams, each with spend, deliverables and common friction points such as a missing connector or a failed tool call. The report ends with recommendations, like recurring workflows worth turning into skills. Surveys appear as a short card after a reply, and a pooled budget counts every request against both the group budget and the member's own limit.

Why does it matter?

TechCrunch frames the launch as Anthropic's answer to a top worry of large customers: what the AI bill actually buys. Pooled budgets also stop heavy users from hitting a personal cap early in the month while colleagues leave budget unused, with email alerts at 50%, 75%, 95% and 100%. Anthropic says smart reports are not meant for judging individual performance.
