We’ve been humbled by the interest in Claude Duet, and are working hard to get people off the waitlist. In the meantime, a few thoughts based on DMs, emails, posts we’ve seen. → Who can use it: Pro and Max subscribers in the US, for now. → Where: You can use it on iOS, Android, and web once you get off the waitlist. Mac app is in the works. → Trust: We designed Claude Duet to be a partner you can trust. More on our safety, security, privacy approach in today’s blog post: claude.com/resources/article… → Use cases: We’re starting with work use cases, which is what a lot of people come to Claude for. Professionals, small business owners, founders, anyone juggling a lot. We’re opening the research preview to these segments first so we can co-build together. Over time, we'll support more use cases across work and life. → Context: Claude Duet already knows about everything you’ve been working on with Claude. Your chats, memory, projects, and more are available in Claude Duet the moment you open it. → Tasks: Tasks are at the center of the experience. Every task gets its own thread you can check in on and steer, so you can multi-task and hand off many things at once. Claude Duet also proactively suggests tasks it can take on, with your approval. We’re glad to see this primitive and dedicated tab resonating. More to come soon. → Proactive with judgment: Opus 5.5 is widely loved for complex real-world work and its natural communication style, and we’ve built around it for deep judgment. More work to be done here so it feels like a world-class teammate, coworker, chief of staff. → Channels: We went with one agent that works across your main chat and dedicated channels, so each area of work gets its own space. Small business owners and professionals are already using channels for customer support, marketing, bookkeeping, etc. Starting next week, we’ll share more on how we built Claude Duet and how early testers are using it. We know usage limits and access outside the US are top of mind too, and are working on both. Please let us know what else we can improve - we're reading all your feedback.

I GIVE UP 💀 I tried EVERYTHING to burn through my Claude Max limits before the free reset expired. 30+ agents across 3 projects, Fable 5.1 and Opus 5.5 on High/Max effort, generated videos, ran audits, built features, and I'm literally about to launch a new app. After all that: 82% weekly usage. 15% Fable. 30% current session. The free reset expired before I could even use it 😭 Never thought I'd complain about having TOO MUCH AI usage. Anthropic, you win. 😂

I got my invite! I’m already loving it.

We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

engineers used to hate context switching and now that's all engineering is

Went out of town for lunch with some family. They decided to go thrifting. I hate shopping, so I’m now sitting at a cafe building out features from my phone and reading my book ❤️
