Governor Gavin Newsom announced the agreement, which makes Claude the first AI productivity tool available statewide through the California Department of Technology's shared services portal. Anthropic will also provide free workforce training and technical support. The deal is notable given the Pentagon's earlier supply-chain risk designation of Anthropic — a label a federal judge has since blocked — highlighting a growing divide between California and federal AI policy. For Anthropic, the deal represents a significant public-sector commercial win as it pushes Claude into large organizations through its Claude Partner Network and consulting partnerships. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
