1Password has launched 1Password for Claude, a new Mac integration that lets Anthropic’s Claude sign in to websites without ever seeing your passwords or two-factor authentication codes. The feature securely injects approved credentials into websites, allowing Claude to complete account-based tasks while keeping sensitive login information out of the AI model and Anthropic’s systems.
The launch also introduces Agentic Mode, a new security feature that automatically limits Claude’s access to only the credentials approved for the current task. Together, the new features address one of the biggest challenges facing AI agents: completing tasks that require account logins without exposing sensitive credentials.
With 1Password for Claude, users no longer need to manually sign in before handing browser tasks over to Claude. Instead, the AI assistant requests access to a specific login when needed, and users approve or deny the request using biometric authentication such as Touch ID. Access is granted only for the current session and expires once the task is complete.
Rather than giving Claude permanent access to a password vault, 1Password delivers approved credentials through a secure encrypted channel and injects them directly into the destination website. According to the company, passwords, one-time verification codes, and other secrets never enter Claude’s context, memory, or Anthropic’s systems.
The integration also supports multi-step browser tasks involving multiple websites. Once users approve the required credentials, Claude can move between supported sites during the same workflow without repeatedly requesting access for each login.
Agentic Mode provides an additional layer of protection whenever a supported AI agent takes control of the browser. It automatically locks down the 1Password vault so only the credentials explicitly approved for the active task remain available, preventing access to unrelated passwords stored in the vault.
Users can see when Agentic Mode is active directly from the 1Password browser extension and can cancel the session at any time.
As another safeguard, 1Password checks webpages after every autofill operation. If a login attempt or form submission fails, any entered credentials are automatically cleared before browser control returns to Claude, preventing sensitive information from remaining visible on the page.
The company says its session-based authorization model ensures Claude never receives permanent access to accounts. Each login request requires user approval, and permissions do not carry over once the authorized task has finished.
1Password for Claude is available now for Mac users on Individual, Family, and Business plans. It requires the 1Password desktop app and browser extension, along with the Claude desktop app and browser extension.
At launch, the integration supports website login credentials only. 1Password says support for payment cards and identity information will arrive in a future update. The company also plans to expand Agentic Mode to additional browser-based AI agents as the ecosystem evolves.
