Meta launches a Muse agent for small businesses that reads social and ad data
Meta is pushing agents from consumers into small-business operations; after last week's privacy leak, the permission design is what to watch.

Meta on September 29 launched Muse for Small Business, an agent that can read a company's Facebook and Instagram business accounts, analytics and ad accounts, then produce concrete task plans from that data.
The product also connects to 15 third-party services including Canva, Figma, Slack, Shopify, Stripe and QuickBooks, covering design, payments and collaboration. Per IT之家's report on Meta's announcement, the company plans further enterprise AI products.
A week ago Muse was reported to have leaked sellers' home addresses without consent and arranged buyer visits on its own; handing business and ad data to the agent makes the permission boundary the first thing to scrutinize.
