Anthropic is quietly winning favor with engineers and hobbyists with its tools designed to simplify and automate coding. Why it matters: Everyone is talking about Claude Code, reinforcing the fact that the AI race is not a binary battle between Google and OpenAI. The big picture: A mass market, easy-to-use coding tool is a game changer for the 99% of people who, until now, had to rely on other people's software to do anything from building custom data tools to automating repetitive work to building apps or websites. And Claude Code — Anthropic's AI coding agent 5 — is having a moment. Zoom in: Professionals and dabblers alike say Claude's latest tool is best for coding and outperforms others like Cursor, GitHub Copilot and even Gemini 3 Pro. The tool can read an entire codebase, plan complex changes, write and debug code autonomously, run commands and loop for hours on tasks. Catch up quick: The term vibe coding — describing projects in natural language instead of code — was coined early last year, but most vibe coding tools still required some coding. Even as recently as early summer 2025, users still had to understand what a tool was doing in order to use it, Dan Shipper, co-founder and CEO of AI subscription service Every, tells Axios."You still really had to understand the underlying architecture, and maybe you still needed to go look at the code," Shipper says. "It would get lost or go off the rails." Claude Code changed this by letting users talk directly to an agent and giving Claude full read/write access to files. "You just tell it to do something, and it works," Shipper says, calling it an "infinite vibe coding machine." State of play: The explosion of online excitement about the tool isn't about one dramatic breakthrough, but a result of different factors coalescing. "The underlying models keep getting better," former OpenAI board member Helen Toner tells Axios. "It's not that it's a huge change, but it's a noticeable improvement."Another feature working
