Meta launches a dedicated Meta AI desktop app for Mac, available in beta. The app is designed to let users share what they’re working on, ask questions, and generate content. Multiple outlets report that it supports window sharing via screen capture and offers dictation that works across other Mac apps.
The release is positioned primarily for businesses and content creators, with outlets noting integrations intended to connect the assistant to work tools and content workflows. Sources say Meta AI links with Facebook and Instagram, and includes analytics features to answer questions about performance. One report adds that it can connect with Google Workspace for document access, contingent on using a professional Facebook or Instagram account.
Outlets also describe newer productivity features that extend beyond chat, such as completing recurring tasks and reminders and generating items like decks, documents, and spreadsheets. Some coverage highlights privacy tradeoffs: Meta’s policy states that interactions involving Meta AI features may be used to train its models. Meta AI is described as free, with optional Meta One plans that increase rate limits.
