What it does

  1. 1

    A short brief every morning

    Every morning it goes through your connected apps and sends you a short brief on what needs your attention today.

  2. 2

    It connects to your apps

    It connects to Gmail, Slack and over 6,000 connectors and plugins, so it always has the context of all your apps. It messages you when something needs you.

  3. 3

    It works even when your laptop is off

    It is an app on your phone, and it runs on its own virtual machine. So it keeps working when your laptop is off.

  4. 4

    It asks before anything big

    It always asks you before it sends a message, pays, signs or deletes anything.

5 things to ask it first

Copy any of these into Claude Duet once you are in.
