Third-party reports said Meta’s Muse AI agent reached approximately 5 million downloads and expanded into commerce, advertising, sales, and small-business operations. Muse reportedly had about 560,000 daily users, while Expedia integrated its travel-booking services with the agent; Booking Holdings reportedly declined to participate to protect its direct-channel mix. The reports indicate a strategic effort to develop AI-driven commerce and monetization beyond Meta’s traditional advertising model, although no company revenue or investment amount was disclosed.
