Anthropic has introduced a groundbreaking way to build, host, and share interactive AI-powered apps directly within the Claude interface. This feature, lets developers create rich applications without worrying about the complexity and cost of hosting or scaling for a growing audience.

You can read more about it here at https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-powered-artifacts.

The core innovation is how these apps work: when a user interacts with a Claude-powered app, their API usage is counted against their own Claude subscription, not the developer's. This removes the financial friction of sharing AI tools. Developers can simply describe what they want to create, and Claude will write the necessary code, which can then be modified and improved with simple feedback.

The name "Claudeception" is a nod to the recursive, "AI-within-an-AI" nature of this new paradigm. This website was created using Claude to build an app that is itself powered by Claude—all with the purpose of discovering more applications built with Claude. It's a fun, meta illustration of the powerful new development cycle this technology unlocks.

Soon, this site will evolve into a comprehensive directory showcasing the most innovative applications created with this feature. The application embedded on this page, a directory of other Claude-powered apps, is the first step toward that vision—an MVP built with the very technology it helps you discover.
