On 2026-11-05 DigitalOcean launched Cuttlefish, a native iPhone app for Managed Agents (Public Preview): follow live sessions and tool calls, approve or deny full commands or diffs, require Face ID/passcode for high-risk actions, and steer, pause, checkpoint, or roll back. Sessions run in cloud microVMs that keep going when the phone is locked or offline. With Box as launch partner, Box Mount (Private Preview) syncs a Box folder into the agent sandbox under Box permissions and version history.

On 2026-11-05 World Labs released research preview Frameboy: a highly optimized Atlas variant streamed from cloud GPUs to the browser at up to ~15 fps (vendor claim) with live camera control. A public demo and a Viewfinder closed-beta overlay shipped together; CEO Fei-Fei Li amplified “Real time Atlas” on X.

On November 5 Perplexity (@perplexity_ai) and CEO Aravind Srinivas (@AravSrinivas) launched Teammates: persistent personal agents on Computer that own ongoing responsibilities, inherit Projects, Skills, Memory and tool permissions, run in isolated desktops and browsers, collaborate with other teammates, and proactively monitor Slack. Official help docs call it a research preview for individual Max subscribers on the web; Enterprise Pro/Max are not included by default; native mobile and desktop apps are coming later.

On November 5 Meta AI (@AIatMeta) said Muse Realtime Avatar, previewed at Connect, is rolling out in the US Muse app, turning Muse Realtime Voice into interactive live avatars. The research blog describes an audio-driven Diffusion Transformer that shares the speech-token stream with voice for lip-sync and expression; a single GB200 session streams 448×768 at 25 fps with about 870 ms from end of user turn to first synchronized audio-video byte, with Meta Video Seal invisible watermarking. Muse is for users 18+; no global schedule or developer API was announced.

On November 5 Mistral expanded Mistral Studio. Managed Agents, built with the Agents SDK (mistralai-agents), run the same code in-process, self-hosted (agents serve) or Mistral-managed (agents deploy), with durable execution for hours or days, crash resume and human approvals. Mistral also shipped a Vibe-powered workflow builder, the mistral apps CLI, HTTP API connectors, webhooks and triggers, a managed search index, and offline and online evaluations, mostly in Public Preview.

Ricursive Intelligence released its first model, Ripple-65B Preview, on November 4 (18:24 UTC), open-sourcing the instruction-tuned model (BF16 and NVFP4) and a base model on Hugging Face under Apache 2.0. The official model card describes a 65B dense Transformer pretrained on 12T tokens with up to 1M context, and self-reports TerminalBench 2.1 80.5, SWE-bench Pro v2.0 Hard 79.1 and DeepSWE 1.1 44.3, ahead of much larger US open-weight models on agentic coding. It fits on local hardware such as the DGX Spark. CEO Anna Goldie says it cost about a tenth of the prior comparable state of the art.

At its first Forge conference on November 3, open-model inference platform Fireworks launched a batch of products. Ultra-fast, powered by NVIDIA Blackwell, is in public preview at up to 1,500 tokens per second on DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, cutting a 30-turn agent task from 1 minute to 8 seconds. Background Mode runs deferrable work at half price, alongside multi-day prompt caching and higher rate limits. Nexus Desktop brings open-model routing into the Codex app, Claude Desktop and OpenCode, with Pro plans from $8 per month. Fireworks also announced No Eval, serverless LoRA inference, the Fireworks Sovereign private preview and a 60+ partner Frontier Ecosystem.

On November 3, Apple announced on its Developer site that a new Developer Preview in the iOS 27.3, iPadOS 27.3, macOS 27.3 and visionOS 27.3 betas lets any app bring its content and actions into Siri AI through App Intents, tapping personal context, onscreen awareness and natural language. Apple also introduced skills, which teach Siri AI to combine several actions into one experience, and Siri AI can now surface any entity in the Spotlight semantic index. It is a preview only: customer rollout is a few months away and App Store submissions open in spring. Siri AI remains unavailable in the EU on iOS, iPadOS and watchOS.

On Nov 2 Meituan's LongCat team listed LongCat-2.5 in its API platform change log as the full release of September 25's LongCat-2.5-Preview. The official technical blog says it has 1.6 trillion total parameters with about 48 billion activated per token, builds on LongCat-2.0 with stronger native visual understanding and agentic coding, and was trained and served with W4A4 inference on domestic AI accelerators. Vendor-reported scores include 88.4 on Terminal Bench v2.1, 38.5 on Terminal Bench v4.0, 91.9 on BrowseComp and 83.1 on MCP Atlas. The API speaks both OpenAI and Anthropic formats with a 1M-token context and up to 128K output tokens, at a limited-time price of $0.30 per 1M uncached input tokens, $0.006 cached input and $1.20 output.
