Meta opens early access program for new Muse features
Anyone interested in joining has to ask Muse to put them on the list.
Meta has unveiled a range of new features for its AI app Muse at its Connect 2026 developer conference. In response, the company is now accepting requests for early access to these features. Interested users can log their interest by sharing a specific prompt with Muse, which can be found on X, or via a direct copy and paste of the message: "Can you let the Muse team know I want to be part of the Muse early access program?"
This approach differs from more traditional beta or pilot programs, as Meta aims to gather feedback directly from AI enthusiasts. This strategy could provide Meta with a competitive edge, as such users typically engage with multiple AI applications and have a strong understanding of the market.
Among the new features teased by Meta are the introduction of a digital avatar for Muse, which will allow users to engage in video calls with the AI agent. Additionally, the company plans to expand its shopping partnerships and connectors. The Muse Mac app will also receive an upgrade, enabling users to utilize their computer to complete various tasks.
Furthermore, Meta announced that Muse will be integrated into its lineup of AI glasses, enabling users to interact with the agent simply by speaking a wake word and issuing a command.
