Slack’s New AI Teammate: Meet Claude Tag, Your 24/7 Workplace Assistant

San Francisco, Tuesday, 23 June 2026.
Anthropic just launched Claude Tag, an AI agent that joins Slack channels as a full-fledged team member. Tagged like a colleague, it automates tasks, merges code, and proactively updates teams—handling 65% of Anthropic’s own code reviews. The twist? It remembers context, works asynchronously, and respects strict data boundaries, making it the first AI that truly feels like a coworker.
