Anthropic Launches Claude Tag, Replacing Its Slack App with a Persistent AI Teammate that Learns, Monitors and Works Autonomously

The feature gives each Slack channel one shared Claude that learns context, breaks down tasks, and can be scoped by administrators.

  • On Tuesday, Anthropic launched Claude Tag, an always-on AI agent that embeds directly into Slack channels as a persistent, shared teammate for enterprise and team customers.
  • Anthropic designed this tool as an evolution of Claude Code, shifting AI interaction from 'single-player' chatbots to 'multiplayer' agents where multiple users engage with one AI instance collectively.
  • Users tag @Claude to delegate tasks, which the agent breaks into stages and executes autonomously; optional "ambient" behavior allows it to proactively monitor threads and surface relevant updates.
  • Administrators can tightly scope Claude Tag's access to specific tools and channels, ensuring sensitive data isolation; the product replaces the existing Claude in Slack app on August 3.
  • This launch positions Anthropic within the fiercely contested Slack ecosystem alongside competitor Salesforce, supporting the company's broader push toward enterprise dominance and a likely initial public offering this year.
