Women in ClaudeThe name started as shorthand.
A way to refer to the women in the Women in Claude community without saying "members" or "users" — words that felt corporate and cold for a space that's anything but.
Claudette. It fit. A little bit French. A little bit playful. And it captured something real about the women in this community: they're not passive consumers of AI. They're builders.
Who Is a Claudette?
A Claudette is a woman who uses Claude to build real things.
That's it. No other qualifications. No technical background required. No minimum experience. No credentials to show.
Some Claudettes are founders who use Claude to run content systems, research operations, and client workflows. Some are HR professionals who have turned a four-hour reporting process into forty minutes. Some are writers who use Claude as a thinking partner, a structural editor, and a first-draft generator. Some are developers who use Claude Code to ship faster and with more confidence.
Many Claudettes are non-technical professionals who would never have described themselves as "AI builders" six months ago — but are now running AI workflows they designed themselves, for their real work, every single week.
What unites them isn't technical skill. It's the decision to show up, try things, share what works, and keep going.
What Claudettes Build
Here's a snapshot of what real Claudettes have built and shared in the community:
A proposal-to-close sales sequence. One Claudette spent hours writing proposals that still felt rushed. She built a Claude workflow that drafts the proposal, generates pricing justifications, and produces a three-part follow-up email sequence. She reviews everything before it goes out. The work that used to take a full day now takes an hour.
A monthly newsletter system. Another Claudette ran a professional newsletter but found the writing process gruelling. She built a prompt sequence that takes her monthly bullet points and generates a full draft in thirty minutes. Her voice, her structure — Claude handles the heavy lifting.
A grant writing review loop. A Claudette at a nonprofit used Claude to build a review system for grant applications — checking narrative consistency, flagging missing evidence, and ensuring every section connected back to the funder's stated priorities.
An onboarding document generator. An operations lead built a Claude Cowork workflow that generates a complete client onboarding pack from a brief. Welcome email, sixty-day milestone plan, FAQ document — all drafted and saved to a folder, ready for her review.
A customer interview synthesis system. A founder who was drowning in customer research interviews used Claude to build a workflow that turns transcripts into structured pain point clusters, product insights, and decision-relevant summaries.
None of these required coding. All of them required real professional judgment — which every Claudette already has.
Why the Name Matters
Naming things matters.
When the Women in Claude community started, it needed a word for its members that wasn't "user." Users are passive. Claudettes build.
It needed a word that felt like belonging rather than just access. Being a Claudette isn't about having a Claude subscription. It's about being part of a community that shares, supports, and builds together.
And it needed a word that was specific enough to mean something. "Women in AI" is broad. "Claude users" is generic. Claudette is specific. It points to a community with a particular culture, a particular tool, a particular way of learning.
The Claudette Community Is in Singapore and Everywhere
Women in Claude started with a focus on Singapore — where the community around Claude AI, Claude Cowork, and AI training for non-technical professionals is particularly active.
In Singapore, Claudettes connect through Women in Claude events, through Claude Cowork Singapore community sessions, and through the training programmes run by ANCHR AI Labs.
Soh Wan Wei — the founder behind ANCHR AI Labs and Claude Cowork Singapore — is one of Singapore's most visible Claudettes. Her work building an AI business without a technical background has shown hundreds of professionals that the non-technical path into AI is real.
But Claudettes are not only in Singapore. They're wherever women are deciding to stop watching the AI conversation from the sidelines and start building something.

One More Thing
There's a version of the AI story where women are receivers. Where AI is something that happens to them — changing their jobs, displacing their roles, making decisions without their input.
Claudettes are writing a different story.
They're the ones building the workflows. Designing the systems. Teaching their colleagues. Running the sessions. Starting the communities.
That's not a small thing. That's how the landscape changes.
