Meta’s upcoming AI agent, Muse, appears to be moving closer to launch. Earlier, we reported that Muse would be accessible through a waitlist, but several details have changed since then. In addition to the waitlist, Meta will introduce invite codes that users can distribute to help others gain access. The agent also seems to have moved from internal testing into a closed alpha phase, with limited regional availability that is very likely restricted to "Saint Kitts and Nevis" for now.
Based on what is currently known about the waitlist page, mobile apps and a web version will be available at launch. A desktop version will likely follow later. We have also recently gained access to the application’s description and several early screenshots.
The description reads: “Muse is your personal AI agent that gets things done, always working on what matters to you. It manages email, books dinners, tracks budgets, and finds deals with your approval.”
Also, “Muse takes the busy work off your plate. It manages scheduling conflicts, books reservations, sets reminders, and follows up with people so birthdays, plans, and deadlines don't slip. Stay on top of your calendar, email, and daily tasks without carrying it all in your head.”
Based on this description, Meta appears to be targeting cliché tasks such as booking tables. The more interesting promise, however, is that Muse will sit on top of a user’s calendar, email, and daily tasks. If Meta builds it as an assistant focused purely on task execution and designs the UI around that purpose, Muse could become a much bigger play. Competition in this space is already fierce, but there is still a massive opportunity to do it much better.
The first screenshot, “Your personal agent that takes things off your plate,” shows a standard chat interface with an avatar of the Muse character at the top. The avatar uses light brown tones and looks a little childish, while remaining serious enough to fit the overall design. The prompt bar is also standard, complete with an attachment button and a dictation voice icon. In the featured example, Muse finds a travel document, offers to sign it, and sends a confirmation email, which the user accepts. Muse also sends an emoji reaction to show that it has started working on the task. If the agent is genuinely proactive like this, it will be a big deal.
The next screenshot, “Approve what gets sent or spent,” focuses on user authorization. Muse says, “Found a few travel strollers for Luca, perfect for your trip,” displays the price, and asks whether the user is interested. It then presents a widget where the user can select a payment method, view the details, and authorize the transaction.
“Track ticket prices and book reservations” shows one of the interface's more distinctive parts: an interactive browser-window widget that the user can open as a link. Muse uses it to open a cinema website, select seats, and handle the booking. The browser widget also carries a “Beta” label.
The “Connect the apps you already use” screenshot displays connectors for Gmail, Google Calendar, HealthX, OpenTable, Facebook, Instagram, Peloton, Plaid, and Function Health. This selection indicates that Muse will support health, fitness, and financial integrations alongside communication, scheduling, and reservation services.
Another screen, “Get ideas for what your agent can take on,” presents several suggested prompts: “I can follow up on your airplane refund,” “I can find a bigger stroller for Luca,” “Build a daily training plan for your half marathon,” “I can book your anniversary dinner,” and “I can help dial in your sleep.” If Muse is proactive or at least provides a dedicated tab for browsing these kinds of ideas, this part of the product could be very interesting.
The final screenshot, “Understand your spending and find ways to save,” begins with a prompt directly from the user asking Muse to review their spending. The next screen says, “Turn your goals into a real plan.” It includes a to-do list with different goals and checkboxes that users can modify and check off. The “create goal” area includes sections for health and relationships, with probably more sections underneath that are not currently visible.
This is the latest set of findings on top of what was discovered earlier. Many more features will likely be added to Muse gradually, but it is already clear that the agent is undergoing testing with a closed group of users on mobile and web. A desktop version could potentially arrive soon as well.
