What Is Meta Muse? The Full AI Family Explained
Muse is Meta's AI family: a personal agent, the Spark model, an open model, image and video tools, a coding agent, and a wearable. Here's what each one does.
Muse is Meta's (Facebook and Instagram's parent company) 2026 AI product family. It includes a personal AI agent called Muse, the Spark model that powers it, an open-weight model called Glimmer, an image generator, a coding agent, and a wearable device — plus a video tool that hasn't launched yet.
Muse, in one sentence
Muse is the name Meta gave its entire 2026 AI product line — not one product, but a family: a personal agent, the model behind it, an open version of that model, an image generator, a coding tool, and hardware.
Muse (the personal AI agent)
The flagship product. Launched September 8, 2026, the Muse agent can browse the web, connect your other apps, and complete multi-step tasks with your approval — book a reservation, plan a trip, track expenses. It's officially available in the US and Canada only, free with a usage limit, with paid plans at $20 and $100 a month.

Muse Spark (the model)
The AI model doing the actual thinking behind Muse and Meta AI. Spark launched in April 2026 and has been updated three times since (1.1, 1.2, 1.3), most recently in September. It's also rolling out inside Meta AI in the Meta AI app, and gradually Instagram and WhatsApp.
Muse Glimmer (the open model)
Meta's free, openly licensed model — a smaller version of Spark's capabilities that you can download and run on your own computer. Released August 2026 under the Apache 2.0 license.
Muse Image
Meta AI's image generator, launched July 2026. It sparked controversy over a now-removed feature that let anyone generate images by tagging public Instagram accounts. How to turn this off →

Meta's terminal-based coding agent, released alongside Spark 1.2 in August 2026.
Muse Charm
A wearable keychain device announced at Meta Connect (around September 23, 2026), with a small touchscreen and built-in 5G. Shipping in December 2026; price not yet announced.
