Claude Duet 正式发布：Anthropic 押注面向专业场景的 AI Agent

当前 AI 领域涌现了大量个人与生产力助理，每周都有新品发布。如今，Anthropic 也加入了这场竞争，推出了一款名为 Claude Duet 的全新应用以争夺用户注意力，旨在与 Meta Muse、OpenAI Dots、Hark、Instinct、Grok Bot 以及 Fo 展开角逐。

Anthropic 表示，这款全新的 Agent 旨在满足专业人士和小微企业的需求，帮助他们实现任务自动化和管理。该公司特意将其与 Instinct 等个人 Agent 区分开来，指出 Duet 并不擅长处理日常琐碎差事或订票，也不会向用户实时展示其使用浏览器的过程。

相反，Duet 能够为用户生成每日简报、创建仪表板，或根据用户的数据提出行动建议。与其他 Agent 类似，Duet 可以在你处理其他事务时，通过自带的虚拟机在后台完成任务，并在需要获得许可时向你请求批准。

该产品的推出正值行业重心从 AI 助手转向能够代用户行事的 Agent 之际。Anthropic 的许多竞争对手也都在聚焦商业用例。尽管 Meta 的 Muse 是一款个人 AI 助手，但该公司也推出了面向支持连接其他应用的小微企业版本。OpenAI 的 Dots 同样带有业务偏向，具备与专业工具集成的能力。

Anthropic 表示，Duet 在监控进行中任务的同时会主动提供建议。Duet 基于 Claude Opus 5.5 模型构建，能够连接 Claude Marketplace 中超过 6,000 个连接器和插件。它还可以通过 Stripe 的 Link 数字钱包或 Shopify 的 Shop Pay 代替用户完成在线采购。

该公司表示，支付等敏感步骤将需要获得用户批准。不过，Duet 不会进行证券交易，也不会在账户之间转移资金。

此外，Anthropic 还发布了一款全新的分类器，用于检查每条消息以防止敏感信息泄露。该公司表示，默认情况下，该 Agent 会直接拒绝索取信用卡号和政府身份证件的请求。

Claude Duet 目前以 iOS、Android 应用以及通过 Claude.ai 网页版的形式，面向 Pro 和 Max 计划用户提供研究预览。用户需要加入候补名单以申请试用。

The AI world is flooded with personal and productivity-based assistants, with new ones launching every week. Now, Anthropic is entering this battle in the hopes of gaining user attention with a new app called Claude Duet, aimed at rivaling Meta Muse, OpenAI Dots, Hark, Instinct, Grok Bot, and Fo.

Anthropic said the new agent is meant to cater to professionals and small businesses to help them with automating and managing tasks. The company is making a distinction from personal agents such as Instinct, by noting that Duet isn’t good at handling errands or booking tickets, and it can’t show you its browser use as it happens.

Instead, Duet can build a daily briefing for its users, create dashboards, or suggest actions based on the user’s data. Like other agents, Duet can complete tasks in the background through its own virtual machine while you handle other things, then come back to you if it needs your approval.

The launch arrives as the market shifts beyond AI assistants to agents that can work on users’ behalf. Many of Anthropic’s rivals are focusing on business use cases. While Meta’s Muse is a personal AI assistant, the company also released a version to cater to small businesses with connections to other apps. OpenAI’s Dots has a business slant as well, with its integration with professional tools.

Anthropic says Duet proactively delivers its recommendations as it monitors ongoing tasks. Built on the Claude Opus 5.5 model, Duet can connect to over 6,000 connectors and plug-ins in the Claude Marketplace. It can also make online purchases on users’ behalf via Stripe’s ⁠Link digital wallet or Shopify’s Shop Pay.

The company said sensitive steps like payments would require user approval. However, Duet won’t trade securities or move money between accounts.

Anthropic also released a new classifier to check each message to prevent sensitive information from leaking out. It said that, by default, the agent would turn down requests asking for credit card numbers and government identification.

Claude Duet is available as an app on iOS and Android, and on the web through Claude.ai for Pro and Max customers in research preview. Users have to join a waitlist to try it.
