Geistra and Claude
Claude is where you talk to Claude. Geistra is where your information lives.
Claude's plans give you Claude, with Projects, memory and connectors. Geistra keeps your records, files and their history in Spaces you own, that Claude, ChatGPT and any other AI app you connect all use the same way, and that you can share with the people you invite. Most people want both.
What each one is for
Claude
Anthropic's plans for using Claude yourself.
- Chat with Claude on the web, desktop and phone
- Projects, and memory across conversations
- Connectors to your apps and tools
- Research and Claude Code on Pro and Max
- Free, Pro from $17 a month billed annually ($20 monthly), Max from $100 a month for 5x or 20x Pro's usage
Geistra
Your information, kept, whatever AI you use.
- Spaces for a family, a trip, a client or a project, with organized records you and your AI keep up to date
- Your files kept as the original, scanned for viruses, read page by page and searchable
- Every change kept: who made it, through which AI app, and the version before
- Shared with the people you invite, each at their own access level, using their own AI
- The same Spaces in Claude, ChatGPT or any app that supports MCP connectors
- Things that run on their own: scheduled tasks, date reminders, email in

Better together
Add Geistra to Claude as a connector. Claude then works from your Spaces, under your permissions and approvals, and every change it makes is kept.
- Claude answers from the whole Space, not only what's in one chat
- Someone you share a Space with sees the same up-to-date information in their own AI, Claude or ChatGPT
- Big changes, like inviting people or sharing a public link, wait for you
- Change AI later, or use several: your Spaces stay where they are
