Meta's free AI agent, Muse, has surpassed 5 million downloads within three weeks, leveraging Meta's 3.6 billion daily active users to offer wide accessibility. In contrast, Google's AI agent, Spark, remains behind a paywall with 950 million monthly users but limited functionality. Meta aims to monetize Muse through small transaction fees, betting on broad adoption, while Google and Microsoft focus on paid AI subscriptions. JPMorgan warns that AI agents handling shopping and travel could disrupt Google's core search revenue, valued at $63 billion in Q2 2026. The market is watching closely for Spark's public launch and Meta's Q3 results to see if Muse's strategy pays off.
