Claude Duet is Here: Anthropic's 24/7 AI Agent (48 Hour Test)

October 26, 2026 · 25 min

Show notes

Anthropic finally has its answer to Meta Muse, OpenAI Dots and Grok Bot. Claude Duet is a 24/7 personal agent that works on its own computer in the cloud, carries over your Claude memory and connected apps, and comes to you with what needs your attention. Ejaaz has had early access for 48 hours: he maps a five-mile walk through streets he's never walked, prices a Shadowless Charizard with live eBay listings, and shows the Tasks tab it fills overnight. Then how it compares, what it costs, and whether you can trust it.

We also cover the money behind the agent race: OpenAI's $30 billion round, DeepSeek's $15 billion raise, Meta's first negative free cash flow quarter since 2012, and why 2027 capex is shaping up to be enormous.
