New agent targets professional users

The company states that this new tool is designed specifically for professionals rather than personal errands. Duet can build daily briefings and create dashboards based on user data without showing browser activity in real time. It operates through a virtual machine to complete background tasks while waiting for approval when needed.

Platform connects to many tools

The application is built on the Claude Opus 5.5 model and supports connections to over 6,000 different connectors. Anthropic notes that this approach distinguishes the product from personal assistants like Instinct which handle booking tickets. Rivals such as Meta Muse and OpenAI Dots are also focusing on business use cases in this shifting market.
