Case Study: European Parliament expands archive access with Anthropic's Claude

European Parliament expands access to their archives with Claude

The European Parliament, a major government institution, sought to overcome the challenge of making its vast historical archives easily searchable and accessible to a wide audience. To address this, they partnered with Anthropic, utilizing the Claude Developer Platform via Amazon Bedrock to develop a sophisticated solution.

Anthropic implemented an AI assistant named "Ask the EP Archives" or Archibot. This solution made over 2.1 million official documents instantly accessible, featuring advanced search, summarization, and multilingual support. The project, powered by Anthropic's Claude, resulted in an 80% reduction in document search and analysis time, dramatically boosting efficiency for researchers, policymakers, and the public while enhancing governmental transparency.
