I don't see people switching to Claude sheets overnight & the messaging from anthropic will likely become less effusive over time (short-/medium-term). But I'd be surprised if this doesn't make significant inroads in the long-term.
Figma is the default for teams but is losing a lot of stickiness.
I don't quite follow you. Are you talking about Mermaid's lack of decision when laying out diagrams?
I'm working on a tool that makes it easier for me to work with mermaid diagrams (mermaid is a great intermediary format for representing certain types of information, e.g. software architecure, but its syntax does not work well with my brain), so I'm interested in alternative concepts that make it easier to work with these types of things.
I don't think there is a reasonable expectation that these new tools will simply end Google Workspace. Google are going to be just fine to do whatever they want with their stuff, and they have the customers.
Anthropic can just do this for a new generation of people and businesses, and establish themselves here over time.
What these tools are generally missing is a way for the user to "fix stuff" that isnt just prompting. Once they add things like that, added to model improvements... it's just going to be a cost story: which one is cheaper.
For me, this is simply a first-party UI for Claude. So they have better control over the presentation layer + some extra features on top.
It's not meant to be equivalent to Google Sheets or Excel.
So yes, not dead and clearly good for people who want that additional layer of control, but also nowhere where it used to be.
