# Meta Muse: what it does to your business

## In short

Meta's Muse, launched in the US on 8 September 2026, is a personal agent with its own browser that can book and buy with the user's approval. Amazon blocked it, and Shopify keeps checkout through it on by default. This page lists the dated facts and three things to check on your side, current at 4 November 2026.

## What it does not do

-   Cannot shop Amazon: Amazon blocked it in September 2026.
-   Does not complete sensitive actions without user approval, per Meta.

## What to check on your side

1.  Look at your platform's Meta channel: on Shopify it is on by default for eligible stores, with an off switch.
2.  Decide whether agents that do not identify themselves may shop. Amazon said no.
3.  Remember Muse asks the user before sensitive steps such as a purchase, so your checkout will see a confirmed customer.
