🔥🔥Claude's NEW Agent | How To Get on the Waitlist for Claude Duet ! 😎
Description
Claude just dropped a new agent called Duet. In this video, I show you the announcement and how to get added to the waitlist. Right now, it's in research preview. You need a Pro or Max plan to use it, and it will use your plan's usage. There's only one bot, unlike Grok, which has sub-bots.
Summary
Mason makes a quick news update about Claude Duet, the new agent from Anthropic that he describes as Claude's own take on Grok Bot. He shows the post from the official Claude account announcing the research preview: a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent that brings you what needs your attention, completes tasks when asked, keeps working while you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.
He explains that Duet is in research preview, essentially a beta, and that joining the waitlist takes a Pro or Max plan, with Duet drawing on that plan's usage. He places it alongside the other agents he has been trying, Grok Bot and Meta's Muse (which he calls easy to use and free), and mentions Dots, which he has not tried. Unlike Grok Bot, Duet is a single bot rather than a team of bots, which makes it a bit more like Muse.
Then he shows how to join: search for "Claude Duet waitlist", skip the Reddit result and scroll to the official announcement page, press the waitlist button, and fill in a name, an email address (he used the one tied to his Claude account), a company name that the form requires, and whether you have an iPhone or an Android. He got a confirmation that he was added and expects an email when access opens. He closes by saying he is glad to see more competition in the agent space, and that Grok Bot is still on top for him because of its ease of use and many bots.

Claude Duet announcement
0:04 All right, guys. It's Mason. Welcome back to the channel. I just wanted to make a super quick update video for you guys because we got some important news. Claude has finally released their own Grok Bot however you want to put it. And they're calling it Duet. I'll go ahead and show you the post right from the official Claude account. We're opening research preview of Claude Duet, a new mobile app or a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with the with what needs your attention, completes task when you ask of it and keeps work when you step away and keeps working when you step away.
Research preview and plans needed
0:48 And checks with you before it acts on your behalf. So basically um from what I understand they just announced this today and Claude Duet is, of course, it's in research preview which means it's basically in a beta right now. And if you want to join the waitlist, you're going to need a Pro or Max plan. So that's your $20 a month plan or your um $100 plan. And this, of course, is basically a direct competitor to different surfaces uh or to different agents like uh Grok Bot and Muse. So of course, we've had Grok Bot for a while and everybody's been loving that.
Duet vs Grok Bot, Muse and Dots
1:31 And we've got Meta Muse, which is super easy to use and completely free. And then, of course, uh we've got Dots that was just announced a little while ago. Haven't used it yet. You need a $100 plan to even use Dots. So I have not tried it out yet. But I've been having a lot of fun with Grok Bot and Muse.
Finding the official waitlist page
1:54 Anyways, to get Claude Duet, all you're going to do is you're going to search Claude Duet waitlist. And then uh looks like we have a Reddit post here. But you're going to want to scroll down to the official announcement page. It's going to take you here. And you can read up on this. It's going to be using um your usage for whatever plan you have. Um
One bot, and joining the waitlist
2:19 and then it's just one bot. There's not like a team of bots like Grok Bot has. So it's a a little bit more like Muse in that regard. And then uh if you if you want to join the waitlist, you just press this button right here. Fill out your name, your email address. Uh I am not 100% on this, but presumably you want to use the email address that your Claude account is attached to. That's personally what I did. And uh company name if you have one. Um it says it's required. So just put something random like if you don't have a company. That's what I did, and it seemed to work fine. It said I was added to the waitlist.
Platform choice and final thoughts
3:01 And then whether you have an iPhone or an Android. And I'm sure you'll get an email from Claude telling you uh when that's ready. So just a cool uh update from Anthropic. I really like that we are getting a lot of competition in the agent space. And there's multiple options. I'm really interested though to see how things kind of stack out. Right now, I think Grok Bot is probably still on top just for the ease of use combined with the flexibility of having many bots. So um yeah, that's just a super quick video, guys. Uh I'm not even going to edit this. Just uploading it, letting you uh know what's happening.
