The US research preview is waitlisted for Pro and Max, not Team or Enterprise, and shares plan usage limits.

Claude Duet is a research preview that takes tasks by message, works on a cloud computer, and asks before sending messages or paying. It uses the subscriber's Claude memory, skills and connectors, and briefs users in the morning. It is offered to Claude Pro and Max subscribers in the United States via iOS, Android and claude.ai. Background checks count against plan limits, and Anthropic says it may misjudge urgency or miss items between check-ins.

Key facts
  • It is powered by Opus 5.5 and available on Pro and Max plans in the US.
  • Approvals, logins and safety checks run in the user's own cloud computer.
  • Team and Enterprise plans are not included in the preview.
  • Larger tasks such as financial models or decks use more model turns.
  • Mobile apps are iOS and Android; on a computer it opens at claude.ai.
