20 Things You Can Ask Muse AI to Do

Wondering what can Muse AI do in practice? Muse, Meta's personal AI agent, is built to act, not just answer: it sends emails, books travel, opens a browser, fills out forms, and negotiates on your behalf, and it keeps working after you close the app. Here are 20 concrete asks worth trying, grouped by area of life.

Quick ground rules before the list:

• These trace to Meta's announcement and launch coverage — where an ask depends on a connected service, connect that service first.
• Anything involving spending, sending email, or submitting forms should include "make Muse ask first" — Meta says Muse checks before sensitive actions anyway, but say it explicitly.
• Launch coverage (Reuters) reports Muse will sometimes fail to finish things. Check the audit trail it keeps of everything it did and plans to do.

Travel

1. "Plan a weekend trip to Savannah for two and find hotels under $180 a night." Muse books travel and uses its own browser to research options, then brings you a plan.
2. "Watch flights to Denver in early November and ping me if the price drops below $250." This is Muse's asynchronous mode: it keeps working after you close the app and comes back when something changes. More in our cheap flights guide.
3. "Turn my saved posts into a five-day Tokyo itinerary with neighborhoods grouped by day." Research and itinerary building suits an agent that can browse while you do other things.
4. "Compare these three hotels on cancellation policy and walkability, and pick one." Comparison shopping across sites is classic VM-and-browser work — see compare hotels.

Shopping and errands

5. "Turn this Instagram recipe reel into a grocery list for four." This is Meta's own example: Muse watches a reel and extracts the ingredients. Our shopping list guide expands on it.
6. "Research three robot vacuums under $600 for a house with two dogs and recommend one." Muse opens a browser and reads reviews and spec sheets, then argues a case — the core of product research.
7. "Track this stroller's price and tell me if it drops under $320 — make Muse ask first before buying." Price watching plus purchase, with your approval gate in the instruction. See find the best price.
8. "Find a birthday gift for my dad under $50 — he golfs and grills — and show me three options." Muse narrows the web to a shortlist; you make the final call. Try it via buy a gift.

Email

9. "Draft a firm but polite refund request for order #48213 and send it after I approve." Draft-and-approve is the right pattern for email: Meta says Muse checks before sending, and you should keep it that way. More at draft email.
10. "Go through my inbox since Friday and list anything that needs a reply today." With email connected read-only, Muse triages for you — the idea behind summarize email.
11. "Follow up with Dana about the proposal I sent nine days ago — draft it, don't send it yet." Chasing slow replies is exactly what follow up on email covers.
12. "Negotiate with my internet provider about my bill going up to $89 — don't accept over $60 without checking." Meta says Muse negotiates on your behalf and cites "lowering a bill" as an example outcome; set your limit and make Muse ask first.

Calendar and planning

13. "Look at my calendar and find three days I could take off next month." Connect your calendar and Muse reads around your commitments — see organize calendar.
14. "Find a 45-minute slot next week when Priya, Marcus, and I are all free and invite them." Scheduling across calendars is one of the most practical agent tasks — schedule a meeting.
15. "Plan my week from my calendar and unread email: top five priorities and what I can skip." A merged view of email plus calendar, the basis of plan my week.
16. "Fill out the city's parking-permit form with my details and show me before submitting." Meta says Muse fills out forms; keep the submit button behind an approval — make Muse ask first.

Everyday life

17. "Remember that two of our dinner guests don't eat meat when you pick restaurants." Meta says Muse remembers things like friends' dietary restrictions — and you can tell it to forget anything.
18. "Help me sell my car: draft the listing, screen replies, and flag serious buyers only." "Selling a car for more" is one of Meta's stated example outcomes.
19. "Find a table for six this Saturday around 7 p.m. at a place with good vegetarian options." Dining is among the service categories Muse connects to (per TechCrunch); ask it to confirm before booking.
20. "Research two preschools' tuition, waitlists, and reviews and give me a one-page comparison." Long research jobs run in the background; Muse returns a brief — similar to make a decision.

Tips for better asks

• Add a number to everything: budgets, dates, headcounts, deadlines.
• Say what Muse may do alone versus what needs your OK — purchases, sends, and form submissions should always need your OK.
• One goal per ask. Two tasks? Two asks.
• If a result disappoints, open the audit trail and correct the specific step.
