Exclusive: Anthropic tests its own always-on "Conway" agent

Anthropic is developing "Conway," an always-on AI agent that expands beyond their current chat interface. Conway would feature an extension system for third-party add-ons, external webhook support, Chrome integration, and the ability to stay active across multiple sessions. The platform includes three core areas—Search, Chat, and System—with capabilities for custom tools, file handling, and direct connections to external services. This positions Anthropic to compete with comprehensive AI platforms while offering deeper Claude integration.
