The current picture

A research preview, with a waitlist.

Anthropic announced Claude Duet on October 21, 2026. Its product page describes a research preview for US Pro and Max subscribers. Read the announcement ↗

The Help Center lists three access requirements: a US Claude account, a Pro or Max plan, and a waitlist invitation. Team and Enterprise are not included yet. Invitations arrive in waves; joining does not promise an access date. Check current access details ↗

During the preview, usage shares your plan’s limits. Features and availability may change. See the official product page ↗

Before your first handoff

Start small. Review the result.

  1. Choose a bounded task. Try a company research brief, an email draft or a weekly update.
  2. Name permitted sources. Supply or authorize those sources in the receiving tool. Handoff Kit cannot connect them.
  3. Define what done looks like. Specify the format, deadline, limits and acceptance criteria.
  4. Keep action approval separate. Review the work before sending, paying, deleting or signing. A brief cannot enforce a model’s behavior.
