Anthropic has opened a waitlist for Claude Duet, an AI agent that sends daily briefs, watches the apps you connect it to and keeps working when you step away: scheduling meetings, building dashboards, drafting forecasts. Anthropic says it "checks with you before it acts on your behalf", and warns that in this early phase it "might misread a thread or miscalibrate what's urgent". The preview is for Pro and Max subscribers. It is aimed at small businesses and professionals; Anthropic says personal errands such as booking tickets are "not quite as strong". It arrives as rival agents take off: Meta says more than 10 million people in the US and Canada have set up its Muse agent in six weeks, and OpenAI launched its "dots" agents this month. It means handing an AI ongoing access to your mail, calendar and files.https://www.cnbc.com/2026/10/21/anthropic-preview-of-claude-duet-personal-ai-agent-take-on-muse-dots.html#AI #Anthropic #Claude #AIAgents #Privacy
