Anthropic announced the acquisition of Stainless, a startup that specializes in automatically generating idiomatic SDKs from OpenAPI specifications. Stainless's technology will be used to enhance Anthropic's API offerings, particularly for Claude. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. Stainless had previously worked with companies like OpenAI and Vercel to produce SDKs in multiple languages. By integrating Stainless's tools, Anthropic aims to reduce the friction developers face when integrating Claude into their applications, providing more reliable and up-to-date SDKs. This move signals Anthropic's commitment to improving developer tooling and expanding the ecosystem around Claude.

// why it matters

Better SDKs mean faster, more reliable integration of Claude into developer projects.
