Shipping a production agent meant months of infrastructure work first. Managed Agents handles that for you. Define your agent's tasks, tools, and guardrails, and we run it on our infrastructure. Here's what early customers have built: [image]

Before, you had two ways to use @claudeai with Notion: 1. Custom Agents (Notion runs the harness) 2. Claude + MCP (Claude runs the harness) Now there's a third with Claude Managed Agents. Notion is the collaboration layer. You can keep working in Notion while Anthropic runs the

Managed Agents is the first ‘agent in the cloud’ API that has the right mix of simplicity and complexity. Implementation details like how you manage a sandbox are abstracted, but you have a lot of control over the actual execution of the model.
