Anthropic launches proactive Agent product Claude Duet
Anthropic launches the standalone product Claude Duet, positioned as a proactive Agent. It is currently open as a research preview and requires an application submitted on Claude. The first batch is aimed at Pro and Max users in the United States, offering three entry points: iOS, Android, and claude.ai. Duet is designed based on Claude Opus 5.5. It proactively organizes important matters from connected apps and pushes briefings, and can also take on tasks such as scheduling meetings, building data dashboards, and making forecasts, and can use more than 6,000 connectors and plugins in the Claude Marketplace. Before sending messages, making payments, signing documents, or deleting content, it first displays the pending action and waits for approval. Credit card numbers and ID document information are directly denied access, while health and personal financial information is released only with explicit authorization.
