Meta's Muse AI agent adds subscription-tracking and cancellation feature

Meta's newly rolled out Muse AI assistant can identify and cancel consumers' recurring subscriptions, folding that function into a broader personal-assistant tool rather than a standalone subscription-management app. The launch comes as U.S. consumer subscription spending has risen sharply, with Mastercard and FT Strategies reporting 44% of consumers increased subscription spending in 2025 to an average of $1,887 annually.

Amazon blocks Meta's Muse AI agent from making purchases on its platform

Amazon has barred Meta's new Muse AI assistant from completing purchases on its e-commerce site, saying the practice would violate its terms of service. Muse, launched to strong consumer and investor response, is designed to shop across retailers, book travel, fill out forms and monitor home security cameras, and links to Shopify and Stripe for payment. Meta's stock has risen over 20% since Muse's debut, and the app briefly topped Apple's App Store above ChatGPT.
