Anthropic launches Duet, an always-on personal agent praised as 'pro tool'
alexalbert__ · x · 2026-10-22
Dan Shipper reports Anthropic launched Duet, an always-on personal agent he calls the first personal agent worthy of the 'pro tool' label. After two weeks of testing, his usage shifted from mostly ChatGPT to roughly 50/50 between ChatGPT and Claude — his most time on Anthropic in nearly a year.
Duet lives in its own app separate from Claude, available on iOS, Android, and the web. Anthropic's Alex Albert confirmed the testing in a reply.
