Anthropic, Gamma, and Clay to discuss what happens when enterprises deploy AI at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026

TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, running October 13–15 at San Francisco's Moscone West, will host a panel titled "What Anthropic Sees When Enterprises Actually Deploy Claude" on the AI Stage. The session brings together Anthropic Head of Applied AI Cat de Jong, Gamma Co-Founder and CEO Grant Lee, and Clay Co-Founder and CEO Kareem Amin.

Life after deployment

De Jong works directly with enterprises integrating Claude into their critical workflows. At Disrupt, she plans to discuss why some organizations successfully move from pilot programs into full production, while others remain stuck testing the technology even after 18 months.

Turning a product into a habit

Gamma began as an alternative to traditional presentation software and has since grown into a broader visual communication platform. TechCrunch reported in March that the company was nearing 100 million users as it expanded its AI tools into marketing materials and other visual content. Lee will share his perspective on what makes an AI product compelling enough for customers to return to repeatedly.

AI inside the workflow

Clay provides infrastructure for pulling in data, running automated workflows, and launching go-to-market campaigns. TechCrunch reported in January that Clay was among the launch apps integrated into the Claude interface when Anthropic introduced interactive workplace tools. Amin will discuss where AI proves genuinely useful and what changes once customers begin relying on it.

Together, the three speakers will combine Anthropic's broader view of enterprise deployment patterns with firsthand experience from two founders building AI products that people actually use day to day. Disrupt 2026 is expected to draw more than 10,000 attendees, including founders, investors, and industry leaders, across more than 200 sessions on six industry stages.
