Claude CoworkAvailability

Claude Cowork and chat become one experience on Claude Enterprise

Chat and Cowork are now one Claude on Claude Enterprise plans, after Pro and Max got the same change in September. Team members no longer choose between chat and Cowork before they start.

What it means for you

Admins roll it out in Organization settings, control access by role and manage usage with a new Efficient mode. Check those settings before you turn it on for your team.

Grok BotNew feature

Grok Bot raises routine limits and lets bots forward email

In version 0.75.5, routines can run up to 300 times an hour in total, up from 100, and each routine up to 200 times. Bots can also forward an email from their own inbox with its formatting and attachments.

What it means for you

Teams that sort an inbox on a routine get more headroom. Emails sent on routines still wait as drafts until someone approves them.

Grok BotNew feature

Grok Bot can build reports and dashboards it keeps up to date

In version 0.75.2, bots can build Pages, such as reports, memos and dashboards, that you edit together or have the bot keep up to date. The same release adds video creation and a Zoho CRM connector.

What it means for you

A bot can maintain a shared status report or dashboard instead of you rebuilding it every week. Check its numbers before you share it.

Claude DuetLaunch

Anthropic opens a waitlist preview of Claude Duet, a proactive agent app

Claude Duet is a new app on iOS, Android and claude.ai where Claude works as a proactive agent. The research preview opens by waitlist, starting with US Pro and Max subscribers, and uses the same usage limits as the rest of Claude.

What it means for you

Before Duet sends, changes or deletes anything, it shows what it is about to do and waits for your approval. Some actions, like moving money between accounts, stay off-limits.

n8nNew feature

n8n schedules now survive restarts, and every-N-minutes timing changes

From n8n 2.45, Schedule Trigger nodes use a durable scheduler that stores each run in the database, so a restart no longer drops pending runs. Schedules set to every N seconds or minutes now run N apart from when you published the workflow, not on clock boundaries.

What it means for you

If a scheduled report, sync or reminder depends on running at exact clock times, check it before you upgrade to 2.45.

ChatGPT WorkNew feature

ChatGPT can now create slide decks your team edits together in Space

ChatGPT Slides builds a presentation from a conversation, files or an outline, and teammates can edit the same deck in Space. On the web, decks export to PowerPoint, PDF or Google Slides. It is rolling out to eligible Pro, Business and Enterprise users with Space access.

What it means for you

You can ask ChatGPT in Work to draft a pitch or monthly report deck, then review its numbers and claims with your team before you present it.
