Microsoft unveiled a redesigned Copilot desktop app with Home, Code, and Autopilot tabs: Code uses GitHub Copilot tech to build sandboxed, tenant-hosted internal apps, and Autopilot (ex-Scout) is a persistent enterprise agent with its own identity and cloud computer. Home and Code roll out to Frontier users in coming weeks; Autopilot enters private preview later this month.
Sara Du’s Ando left stealth with a Slack style messaging app that gives AI agents their own identities and inboxes so they can join channels, DMs, and transcribed calls without humans relaying work as “meat proxies.” Accel, Index, and Emergence led a $20M pre seed/seed; small teams in software, real estate, and finance across 15 countries are already on it…
Artificial Analysis scores Claude Opus 5.5 at 66 on its Coding Agent Index at max effort in Claude Code—highest measured, six points above Opus 5—but estimated cost per task rose 21% to $13.04 from $10.79, as heavier token use outweighed Anthropic’s 20% price cut…
Co founder Fabian Hedin told HumanX in Amsterdam that Lovable’s annualized revenue hit $600M, up from about $500M in June. Users at two thirds of Fortune 500 companies are on the platform, apps it hosts pull nearly a billion monthly visits, and it has raised over $700M at a $13.3B valuation…
Anthropic estimates Opus 5.5 costs about 40% less than Opus 5 on typical Claude Code traffic after cutting cache reads 60% and token prices 20%. Sessions now run 3.3x longer per prompt with 2.6x more context; API users can set a one hour cache TTL, and forked subagents inherit the parent's cache…
Anthropic is charging again for Claude API requests blocked before any output in biology, frontier LLM development, and reasoning extraction—categories with under 0.1% false positives—to deter coordinated circumvention. Cyber and other refusals stay unbilled; Anthropic says 99.7% of Claude Code, Claude.ai, and Cowork users won't notice…
