Yes, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, Word documents, and PDFs are now real, supported formats in the free platform. The feature runs on Anthropic's Sonnet 4.5 model, which is known to power Claude's productivity tools. What's more is that connectors are now also available without charge. This integration links Claude to third‑party services such as Canva, Slack, Notion, Zapier, and PayPal."
