Claude in Chrome is a browser extension that turns Claude into a browser automation agent. Can fill forms, navigate pages, extract data, and execute multi-step web workflows on demand. Currently in public beta for Pro users.
Potential replacement for parts of the Playwright-based MakAi scraping and form-filling pipeline. Worth testing against current browser automation tasks before committing to a full migration.
ElevenLabs shipped Conversational AI v2 with significantly improved latency (avg 400ms round-trip), better interruption handling, and more natural prosody. Turbo v3 voice model offers 3x speed improvement over previous turbo with minimal quality tradeoff.
If MakAi or IntelSeven ever expands into voice-based AI concierge (phone bots for med spas or country clubs), ElevenLabs Conversational AI v2 is now production-ready at scale.
Cowork mode is generally available on Claude.ai Pro and Team plans. Supports scheduled recurring tasks, computer use for browser automation, file management, and multi-step agentic workflows — all from the Claude.ai UI without any code.
Useful for Omars own research workflows — schedule daily AI news digests, automate competitive monitoring, or set up recurring data pulls without needing n8n for every automation.
