Probably not a coincidence that Anthropic releases their best model ever the day before they are allowed to start an IPO roadshow 🧐

The Muse experience keeps getting better and better. With the personal feed, goal tracking, voice calling, and now spaces (essentially custom apps), this is so much more than a standard chat window and I can't stop finding new ways to use it.

Spaces are here. Describe a planner, a tracker, a game, whatever you need, and Muse builds it right into the app. Pin it to your tabs, come back anytime, and it’ll already be up to date.
