Meta's Muse AI app tops 10 million users as shopping drives rapid growth
Meta's new AI companion app Muse has surpassed 10 million users since its September launch, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg highlighting retail shopping as the platform's leading use case.

Meta's AI companion app Muse has crossed 10 million users since its release, the company announced during its third-quarter earnings call. Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg identified shopping as the agent's primary use case, noting that more than 25% of Muse users are making purchases through the application, with average purchases exceeding $200.[1][4][9][14][15]
Data from market intelligence firm Sensor Tower shows Muse garnered 10.9 million downloads following its Sept. 8 debut, with 10.2 million originating in the United States. That trajectory makes Muse the 12th app in mobile history to reach 10 million U.S. downloads within its first 40 days, placing it alongside Meta's Threads. PYMNTS separately reported that Muse hit 10 million downloads across the U.S. and Canada in 35 days, whereas competing services such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok each took more than 100 days to reach that threshold worldwide.[3][5][8][10][11][13]
Alongside rapid user acquisition, reports indicate Muse is demonstrating stronger user retention than rival AI agents, even outpacing ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok combined. In contrast, Sensor Tower figures showed U.S. downloads for ChatGPT dropped by more than 25% over the past 30 days.[2][3][8]
