Meta’s Muse, the consumer‑focused AI assistant, now offers paid subscribers the ability to make phone calls to American businesses, adding a new layer of multitasking to the service.

Meta has upgraded its Muse AI assistant, allowing paid users to place phone calls to U.S. businesses directly from the chat interface.

What’s new with Muse

The new feature lets subscribers dial retailers, restaurants, and service providers without leaving the app, turning Muse into a hands‑free concierge for everyday tasks.

How the calling function works

When a user asks Muse to call a business, the assistant verifies the request, dials the number, and can even transcribe the conversation in real time, letting the user follow along or intervene as needed.

Availability and pricing

The calling capability is bundled with Muse’s existing premium tier, which costs $15 per month. Existing subscribers receive the feature automatically, while new users can opt‑in during sign‑up.

  • Place calls to restaurants for reservations
  • Contact retailers for order status
  • Reach service providers for appointments

Meta says the addition aims to keep users within its ecosystem longer, reducing reliance on third‑party apps for simple phone interactions.
