Claude Duet, Grok Bot, Muse and dots: what each does for a home service business
Claude Duet, Grok Bot, Meta Muse and OpenAI dots all launched between August and October 2026. With each one, you hand over a task and it does the work. Full Board AI is made for home service owners who want more calls from people who find them, with the weekly work done for them. Here is how the five compare.
What is each tool?
Claude Duet
Anthropic's agent app. You connect your apps and assign tasks. It is an early test version (Oct 21, 2026), US first. You join a waitlist.
Grok Bot
xAI's always-on agents. You sign them into your tools and assign jobs. An early test version since Aug 11, 2026, on Apple computers and iPhones. Big companies join a waitlist.
Meta Muse
Meta's personal agent. Business skills were added Sep 29, 2026. You connect your tools and give it a goal. It reads your Facebook, Instagram and ad accounts, and nothing publishes, sends or spends without your approval. Available in the US and Canada.
OpenAI dots
Always-on agents in ChatGPT. You create a dot, connect your apps and set its rules. The first dot comes with ChatGPT Pro or Business Premium (paid ChatGPT plans). Rolling out since Sep 29, 2026.
Full Board AI
An AI Growth Team for home service businesses. We do the weekly marketing work: your website, your Google profile and where you show up on Google and the map, social posts, phone answering and lead follow-up, your business listings, and what ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI (tools people ask for a pro near them) say about you. You run the jobs, and you check and approve your business facts (one place that holds your services, prices, hours and the answers you give customers). Live, by application.

"Not a listed feature" means the maker's page does not mention it. It does not mean the tool cannot do it.
Where the other tools are better
Claude Duet comes with Claude Pro ($20 a month, or $17 billed yearly), and Meta Muse is free for most needs, so both cost far less than we do. If you want a tool you direct yourself, one of these may fit. Each one has a way to check with you before it acts.
Where Full Board AI fits
If you run an HVAC, plumbing, roofing or water damage business and want the weekly marketing work done without managing a tool, that is what the Growth Team does. It costs $2,500 a month, month to month.
Can I use both?
Yes. Use an agent tool for tasks you assign yourself. Use Full Board AI for the weekly marketing work.
