Meta launches Spaces, a way to build custom workspaces with its Muse agent

Meta on Friday introduced Spaces, a new feature for working with its Muse agents, the cartoon-style assistants it launched recently. TechCrunch describes Spaces as a fresh way to communicate and collaborate with Muse.

Each Space is a separate conversation built around one topic, which Meta calls a custom experience. Spaces show up in the sidebar of the chat interface, and opening one starts a thread in which Muse works toward a particular goal for the user.

Meta's examples include vacation planning, collecting recipes for a family event, a holiday gift tracker, a wedding planner and DIY projects. Users describe an idea in chat and Muse turns it into a tracker, planner or project board.

People can also connect apps they already use. Meta says Spaces then refresh in the background, surfacing things like new concert dates, price changes or savings progress without being asked.

CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted on X that he had been trying Spaces and built a barbecue game, an event tracker and a home-control dashboard. On the October earnings call he said Muse had 10 million users in the US and Canada less than two months after launch.

On Thursday Meta also announced Muse Voice, which lets US users video chat with Muse and give spoken commands. Spaces is the second Muse feature in about a week. Pricing, a specific rollout date and availability beyond the US and Canada were not stated.
