Claude Marketplace: Anthropic’s Bold Zero-Commission Play for Enterprise AI
Anthropic just did something interesting — and honestly, kind of unexpected. They launched [Claude Marketplace](https://claude.com/platform/marketplace), an enterprise-focused storefront where companies can buy third-party software built on Claude.
