Meta’s newly launched personal AI agent, Muse, draws strong early uptake, with multiple outlets citing estimates that it surpasses ChatGPT and other rivals in initial mobile downloads. CNBC reports Muse reaches about 730,000 downloads in roughly five days after launch.
TechCrunch likewise says Muse is outpacing ChatGPT’s early mobile performance, using estimates from Appfigures for the U.S. and Canada. It reports Muse also records higher daily active users in that period than ChatGPT did after its mobile debut.
Both reports focus on post-launch download momentum and mobile usage during the early days, relying on third-party analytics rather than official figures. Differences appear in the emphasis: CNBC highlights overall downloads and compares Muse against multiple named competitors, while TechCrunch stresses regional comparisons (U.S. and Canada) and includes daily active user metrics in addition to downloads.
