Moving beyond conventional conversational [chatbots](/tech/74378/how-3-very-different-people-use-ai-chatbots) that merely answer queries, Meta has officially introduced [Muse](/tech/74850/meta-releases-muse-glimmer-30b-parameter-local-ai-agent-for-pc-and-mac), its first proactive personal AI agent engineered to perform complex, multi-step actions on behalf of users. Unveiled across dedicated mobile apps and direct [WhatsApp](/tech/75722/how-to-create-custom-whatsapp-stickers-using-chatgpt-step-by-step-guide) integration, Muse acts as an autonomous digital assistant capable of executing long-running tasks even when closed. Powered by [Meta Superintelligence](/tech/69535/mark-zuckerberg-announces-muse-spark-the-first-ai-model-from-meta-superintelligence-labs) Labs’ Muse Spark model and running on a dedicated cloud architecture called Muse Secure VM, the application marks Meta’s definitive push into practical [agentic workflows](/tech/75887/jacob-coxon-resigns-anthropic-citing-ai-dangers-decoding-the-viral-x-thread), helping mainstream consumers negotiate bills, coordinate schedules, and execute secure purchases.

Introducing Muse, your personal AI agent from Meta that gets things done across every part of life.

### **Autonomous goal execution across connected apps**

Unlike reactive chatbots, Muse is built to take ownership of end-to-end goals. Users can set high-level objectives—such as lowering a household utility bill, organizing a complete travel itinerary, or selling a used vehicle. The [agent](/tech/75549/openclaw-20-is-here-a-crowdsourced-update-to-the-ai-agent-is-now-live) opens browser windows, fills out digital forms, and handles cross-service coordination in the background.

When prolonged multi-stage work is required, Muse continues operating after the user exits the app, proactively checking in only when significant milestones occur or when explicit user authorization is required, such as sending sensitive correspondence or confirming travel bookings.

Meta just entered the AI race. 👀

Meta has launched Muse in US and its not just a chatbot, it can actually get things done for you like sending emails, booking travel, filling out forms, and shop best deals on your behalf.

### **Secure VM architecture and safe purchasing**

To overcome the privacy hurdles of granting an AI agent access to personal accounts, Meta built the system around [Muse Secure](/tech/74793/metas-muse-glimmer-wants-to-bring-ai-agents-to-your-laptop) VM. Each user receives an isolated virtual computer in the cloud where their credentials and tasks reside. A separate, decoupled "Sentinel" agent monitors network requests, preventing Muse from accessing the open web without explicit permissions.

For financial transactions, Muse integrates with Stripe’s Link protocol. It generates disposable, one-time-use virtual payment cards that mask the user's actual banking details, backed by built-in protections against price drops and damaged deliveries.

### **Availability and subscriptions**

The Muse app is rolling out on [iOS](/mobile/75848/ios-27-code-reveals-5-new-potential-camera-features), Android, and web platforms, with integration heading to Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses later this year. While the core features remain free for general everyday tasks, an optional power-user subscription is available at USD 20 per month (approx. AED 73.46) for intensive [multi-agent](/tech/75636/openai-developing-automated-shutdown-feature-after-rogue-agent-breaches-hugging-face) compute.

muse is up to #2 on the app store!

With Muse, Meta pivots from conversational novelty toward pragmatic utility. By combining background autonomy with sandboxed virtual machine security and disposable payment protections, Muse sets an accessible standard for consumer AI agents.
