# Start with Meta Muse: choose your setup path.

How to start with Meta Muse: pick the beginner path if you have never used an AI agent — ten minutes, three steps, read-only first. Pick the power-user path to jump straight to connectors, custom builds and multi-connector chains.

Beginner · 10 minutes

## Never used an AI agent?

Muse is not a chatbot — it *does things*: reads your inbox, books tables, tracks spending. You chat like texting; it asks permission before anything big. This path assumes zero knowledge.

- 1. [Point your Muse at this site](/start/point-muse-here/) — one paste, 2 minutes.
- 2. Do one tiny job: [tame your inbox](/do/inbox-zero/) or [book dinner](/do/book-dinner/).
- 3. Learn the safety habit: [approvals, read-only first, revoke anytime](/faq/).

## Already comfortable with AI agents?

You know approvals, scopes, and background goals. Skip the hand-holding — go straight to the full map, custom builds, and multi-connector chains.

- 1. [Connector directory](/connectors/) — all 58, with permissions + prompts.
- 2. [Custom connectors](/connectors/custom-connector/) for anything the built-ins do not cover.
- 3. Chain them: [weekly briefing](/do/weekly-briefing/), [trip planning](/workflows/plan-a-trip/), [money summary](/do/track-spending/).

## Muse in 30 seconds

What it is

Meta's personal AI agent (muse.ai, iOS/Android, WhatsApp). You give it jobs; it uses your apps to do them, asking permission first.

What it isn't

**Muse Code** is Meta's terminal coding agent and **Muse Spark** is the AI model underneath — different products, confusingly similar names. This site covers the **personal agent** only.

What it costs

Free with usage limits; paid tiers for heavy use. 18+, US, Canada, Japan and Singapore — verify current pricing at [our pricing guide](/pricing/) before deciding.

## Getting started with Meta Muse: questions

How long does it take to set up Meta Muse?About ten minutes for the first useful result: join, point your Muse at this site with one paste, connect a single app read-only, and run one small task. Everything after that is optional.

Do I need to know anything technical?No. You chat with Muse like texting and approve what it proposes. The only habit worth learning is connect read-only first, approve sends and purchases one by one, and revoke anything you stop using.

Which path should a complete beginner take?The beginner path: point your Muse at this site, do one tiny job such as taming your inbox or booking dinner, then read the approvals basics. Skip the power-user lane until you have run one task end to end.
