Comparison
The Claude Tag alternative
that isn’t locked to one model.
Claude Tag puts a proactive agent in Slack, on one model, for Enterprise plans only. Adapt does the same multiplayer, proactive work, but routes to the best model across providers, runs across Slack, web, and mobile, and is free for any team to start.

Adapt
Claude Tag locks you to one model, one app, and one plan tier.
Adapt gives you the same proactive, multiplayer agent without those constraints, plus the things a Slack-only chat agent can’t do.

Detailed comparison
Claude Tag runs one model in Slack.
Adapt runs the best model everywhere.
Both run proactive, multiplayer agents. Only one lets you choose the model, the surface, and the price. Here’s the difference across choice, access, cost, and lock-in.
Model Choice
Claude Tag
One model. One vendor. Forever.
Claude Tag runs on Opus 4.8, and only Opus 4.8. Every task uses the same model whether it needs a frontier reasoner or a fast, cheap one. You bet your company’s brain on a single provider’s roadmap, pricing, and uptime.
Adapt
The best model for every job
Adapt routes each task to the right model across Gemini, OpenAI, and Anthropic. You always get the best intelligence available, and you never have to rebuild when a new model takes the lead.
Who It’s For
Claude Tag
Enterprise and Team plans only
No self-serve path. No free tier, no Pro, no Max. If you’re not already a Claude Enterprise or Team customer, you can’t use it. Your whole rollout depends on a sales motion.
Adapt
Every team, starting today
Type a message in Slack. Free to start, no per-seat licensing, no enterprise contract required. The intern and the CEO use the same system from day one.
Where It Works
Claude Tag
Slack, and nowhere else
Claude Tag launched Slack-only. No Microsoft Teams, no web app, no mobile. If your company doesn’t live in Slack, you wait.
Adapt
Wherever your team already works
Slack channels for shared context, DMs for one-on-one, plus the Adapt web and mobile apps with private-by-default chats. One system of intelligence across every surface.
Lock-In & Data
Claude Tag
Memory that raises your switching cost
The longer Claude Tag runs, the more of your institutional knowledge lives inside one vendor. Internal conversations flow straight to the model provider, under retention policies you don’t set.
Adapt
A neutral layer. Your data stays yours.
Adapt sits across your tools instead of funneling everything to one model maker. Swap the underlying model anytime. Your knowledge base, integrations, and history come with you.
Knowledge
Claude Tag
Accumulating memory you can’t see
Channel memory builds up automatically with no way to inspect, edit, or selectively reset it. Disconnecting the integration is the only documented way to clear it. Good context and wrong context compound together.
Adapt
A governed knowledge base
Facts, schemas, and runbooks captured with explicit retrieval triggers you can read and edit. Versioned and org-wide. New hires inherit it. You decide what Adapt remembers.
Cost
Claude Tag
Always-on tokens, metered billing
An ambient agent parsing whole channels burns tokens around the clock, billed on consumption on top of your plan. Early users report fast-climbing bills with limited visibility.
Adapt
Usage-based, with smart routing
Adapt uses cheaper, capable models when a task doesn’t need a frontier one, so you don’t pay flagship rates for routine work. Usage-based pricing with full cost visibility.
What It Actually Is
Claude Tag
