Overview
Muse is Meta's personal AI agent, available as a free Mac app alongside iPhone, Android, and web versions. On the Mac it works across Files, Mail, Messages, Calendar, and Notes: it can organize folders, pull details from email threads, add calendar events, draft message replies, fill in forms with stored information, and put together end-of-day summaries. Muse keeps working in the background after you close the window and syncs with the mobile apps. Access is opt-in, Full Disk Access is optional, and actions like deleting files or sending messages ask for your approval first. You can name your agent and customize how it looks.
