Inspect the work behind the output
The Dashboards and Motion announcement describes dashboards connected to data warehouses or other apps. Charts expose the query that produced the number and show when the data last refreshed. Anthropic’s dashboard guide lists Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise availability; Enterprise owners must enable it.
