Meta AI
by Meta
Personal Assistant
Freemium
✨ Anyone whose audience lives on WhatsApp and Instagram — ideate, draft, and generate images without leaving the chat.
Meta's assistant is everywhere you already are — WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Facebook — free, now running on Muse Spark, with a Mac desktop app since August 2026.
About Meta AI
Meta AI is the assistant living inside the apps where most of the world already hangs out: WhatsApp (about two-thirds of all Meta AI use), Instagram, Messenger, and Facebook, where you can @MetaAI it in group chats — plus a standalone app and, since August 2026, a native Mac app with system-wide dictation and window-aware context. It is free for everyday use, though Meta is testing limits on heavy features with a paid option in the works. Most people do not know it now runs on Muse Spark from Meta's Superintelligence Labs, not the older Llama family — a quiet engine swap. Creator use-case: ideate Reels hooks and generate images inside an Instagram DM, then push the winner straight to a post — no app-switching.
