Anthropic launches Claude Duet agent for professionals

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Anthropic has launched Claude Duet, an AI agent designed for professionals and small business owners, running on Claude Opus 5.5. This proactive agent can draft emails, provide morning briefs based on connected accounts, and perform tasks using over 6,000 connectors from the Claude Marketplace. However, access is currently limited to a waitlist for US-based Pro and Max subscribers, and its background checks draw from existing Claude plan limits. Early reviews suggest it's a powerful tool but lacks real-time takeover capabilities and may not be suitable for urgent tasks. AI

IMPACT This launch introduces a new category of proactive AI agents from Anthropic, competing directly with similar offerings from OpenAI and Meta.

    Claude Duet: Features, Pricing, Early Reviews, and Limitations

    <h2> TL;DR </h2> <p>If you want the quick take, Claude Duet is Anthropic's answer to OpenAI's dots and Meta's Muse, and the first outside reviews are warm but not blind. It suits Claude subscribers who do knowledge work. It does not suit anyone who needs it this week from outside…
