Meta has released Muse for Mac, the first version of its personal AI agent capable of completing tasks directly on a user's computer. This macOS application extends the agent launched earlier in September for iOS, Android, web, and WhatsApp by adding a desktop layer that interacts with native apps.
- The agent operates across Files, Mail, Messages, Calendar, and Notes within their native applications to gather context and execute actions.
- It runs asynchronously in the background and maintains task threads across devices, including phones and WhatsApp.
- Access is opt-in with optional Full Disk Access, and sensitive actions like deleting files or sending messages require user approval.
- The service is powered by Muse Spark and hosted on a dedicated cloud environment called Muse Secure VM.
- It is free for US users, offering up to 100M tokens per week.
The release allows users to automate everyday tasks that span multiple applications without manually copying data between prompts.
