Anthropic's Claude Code shows growing value and broad user adoption

Anthropic has released new research detailing the usage and value of its Claude Code tool. Analysis of 400,000 sessions from October 2025 to April 2026 reveals that over half of these sessions involved writing or repairing code, with nearly 20% focused on software operation. The monetary value of tasks performed via Claude Code has increased by 27% during this period, and the research suggests that domain expertise, while beneficial, is not a strict prerequisite for success, as even intermediate users achieve modest gains.
