Features launch connectors with regional partners: Shopee & Lazada (e-commerce comparison & shopping), Grab (GrabMart groceries & Grab Dine Out), Singapore Airlines, Agoda, Klook, Trip.com, and ShopBack. Third-party integrations run through isolated Muse Secure VM credentials.

21–22 Oct: Meta Q3 earnings: 10M users & glasses update — Mark Zuckerberg announced 10M people have set up Muse across the US & Canada. Shopping is an early breakout with average transaction values exceeding $200. Muse is officially confirmed to land on Meta AI smart glasses in November for multimodal look-and-ask execution. Meta also projected >10× compute-efficiency gains over the coming year (MediaNama / Futu).

20 Oct: Public share links paused & patched — Meta temporarily suspended web artifact share links after Claroc researchers spotted ~6,800 public share links discoverable through passive DNS queries (cf.metaaiusercontent.com). Meta redesigned the link architecture to prevent DNS leakage, re-issued private links, and safely re-enabled sharing within days.

15 Oct: Muse Spark Open (816B) — Meta dropped an open-weights frontier agent model (Meta Research Blog / Hugging Face / SageMaker). 816B MoE (~42B active parameters per token, 256 experts), 1M context window, native multimodal inputs (text, image, video, audio), tuned for full-repo coding and multi-step tool execution under the Muse Model License. Optimized to run locally on dual Apple M5 Ultra Mac Studios via MLX and NVIDIA Blackwell (9to5Mac / Reuters / SiliconANGLE / 9to5AI Guide).

13–19 Oct: Field notes & rollouts — Wonder remains API + Muse Code only (consumer app rollout pending; no new date from Wang’s lab note). Retail connectors (Walmart, Sephora, Shop Pay, PayPal, Expedia, Instacart) still announced / not live. New field notes: blue-collar job hunt to offer in 72 hours (@Tanner_Invests), recovering $350/mo accidental subscription (@Bunmz_A), and full Guatemala trip handoff (@heywayfinder).

12 Oct: Muse Wonder + Wonder Full — Meta's new frontier models for long agent work (The Batch). Active Memory carries what matters across sessions; Active Focus tries alternate approaches when stuck and checks in before anything important. Live today in the Meta Model API + Muse Code (Full is Code-subscriber-only, ~$4/$20 per 1M tokens via API); consumer Muse gets it soon, subscribers first. Research blog / TechCrunch.

07–12 Oct: iPad app + Home Link claims — Muse is now native on iPad (app v10.0, 7 Oct; fourth client after iOS/Android/Mac, still US + Canada only). Home Link claim page is live at gadgets.muse.ai/home-link: free USB-C ESP32-C5 gadget for US subscribers (one per account), ships October first-come — claiming holds your place, it is not an order. Demo: 3-min e-ink daily view on the Gadgets SDK.

10–12 Oct: New use cases — Audi dealer sweep for a Q9 test drive, phishing takedown from inbox headers, evening reads that learn from one emoji. No connector status changes: Walmart, Best Buy, Sephora, Wayfair, Shop Pay, PayPal, Expedia, Instacart, GitHub still announced/uneven; Amazon still blocked; glasses, Charm, Muse email, realtime avatar — no new dates.

06 Oct: Muse Gadgets (open-source) + Home Link — build your own Muse hardware: ESP32 firmware + Raspberry Pi SDK at gadgets.muse.ai (proceed at your own risk).

Verge / TechCrunch.

06 Oct: Small Business connectors now live — Box and Shopify flipped from coming-soon to live, plus 11 new rows: Asana, Canva, Dropbox, Figma, HighLevel, Intuit QuickBooks, Klaviyo, Lovable, Slack, Stripe, Zoom. Per Meta (29 Sep): nothing publishes, sends or spends without approval; free with limits. Notion + Granola were already live. Still coming: Walmart, Sephora, Expedia, Instacart, Shop Pay, PayPal, glasses, Charm, Muse email, realtime avatar. Amazon still blocked. Skipped: Zapier "9,000 apps" (no Meta source), PSP / Touch Bar hacks, EEVblog order, agent-to-agent coffee date.

02 Oct: Nothing newly shipped — Walmart, Best Buy, Sephora, GitHub, Shop Pay, PayPal, Expedia, Instacart are still “adding” / coming soon. Amazon is still blocked. Early access (opened 25 Sep — ask Muse to put you on the list) is a waitlist, not a release. (Update 06 Oct: Box + Shopify are now live via Small Business — see above.)

02 Oct: Marketplace warning — “Allow Always” + a pickup address is not a negotiation policy. Matt Robb handed Muse Marketplace replies, Muse accepted a $100 lowball and sent his Toronto address; a buyer showed up. Verge, 29 Sep.

02 Oct: Drive connector bug report — chats touching Google Drive get interrupted and return nothing. Report. Treating as isolated until more reports land.

01–02 Oct: New use cases — doctor cancellation watch, seen same-day, $85 dental bill disputed to $0. Skipped: reservation-swarm stunts, Din Tai Fung hang-up, and OpenAI Dots ($100/mo business agent — competitor, not a Muse feature).

27 Sep: Add Muse to your Instagram profile — profile badge via + Add your Muse (not a new connector; IG was already linked via Accounts Center). Plus an official prompt: organize your Instagram saved folder.

21 Sep: New use cases — Drive + Photos duplicate purge, daycare booking via Bland phone agent, German EV insurance GAP audit.

20–21 Sep: Amazon blocks Muse shopping — amazon.com shows “unauthorized AI agent violates Amazon's Conditions of Use.” Amazon asked Meta to pull it; Meta declined. Browser shopping on Amazon is dead until that changes.
