India ranks second in global Claude.ai usage: Anthropic’s McCrory

India ranks second globally in overall Claude.ai usage, with nearly half of all activity driven by work-related tasks, Peter McCrory, head of economics at Anthropic, told ET. India’s work-to-personal usage split is unusually high compared with peer countries, showing that AI adoption in the country is largely driven by productivity.

“India really stands out in our data for how heavily Claude is used for work,” McCrory said. “Around half of all conversations on Claude.ai in India are work-related, which is much higher than what we see in other countries at similar levels of adoption.”
