Muse is Meta's personal AI agent for Mac, iPhone, Android, and WhatsApp, built to handle real-world tasks like browsing sites, filling forms, and completing purchases on a user's behalf rather than just answering questions. It stores credentials in a secure vault and, for purchases, can generate one-time virtual card numbers so a merchant never sees a user's real card details. Every action the agent wants to take — booking, buying, or sending something — requires explicit approval first, and every completed action is logged in an audit trail the user can review. On macOS, Muse can also integrate with local files, apps, and open browser tabs to pull context for a task. It is free to use, with no published paid tier as of this listing.

Fellow is an AI meeting notetaker that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings across Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and in-person conversations, then surfaces action items and connects meeting intelligence to AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude via MCP. It is built for regulated, security-conscious organizations—including private equity firms, hedge funds, investment banks, asset managers, fintechs, RIAs, and broker-dealers subject to SEC recordkeeping and FINRA supervision. Its main differentiator is compliance-first governance: organization-wide recording, access, and retention controls (including zero-day retention and MNPI redaction), a strict no-AI-training policy, and an SEC Rule 17a-4/FINRA exam-ready audit trail.
