How a connector gets listed
These are the full rules for what gets listed, and they’re the same rules our software runs. No editor approves anything: software looks for new connectors, our AI reviewer reads the sources, and the rules decide. The lists below are read from the same file the software uses, so this page can’t fall out of step with it.
What the labels mean
- Confirmed by MetaMeta says the connector works with Muse, on a page Meta owns or in a public post by a Meta executive.
- ReportedA news outlet on our list says the connector works with Muse, and we have no Meta source for it yet. One early listing is an exception; see The first listings.
- Not listedTurned down or put on hold. The review log shows which rule stopped it. A name on hold gets a fresh review when our daily search finds a better source or someone suggests one.
Where new connectors come from
Every day our software checks Meta’s help center page on connectors, the Muse Connector Platform page, Meta’s newsroom feed and a news search for Muse connectors. When a page changes, it looks for product names the page calls connectors. You can also suggest a connector. Either way, the review is the same.
The review, step by step
- Names that are always on hold. If the name is on the always-on-hold list below, the review stops and the name stays on hold.
- Who published the page. The link must be a Meta source, a news outlet on our list, or another website, which we treat like the company’s own site (see step 8). The lists below say exactly which pages and accounts count. Forums, other social posts and open blogging sites are turned down.
- Open the page. Our reviewer opens the page itself, over a secure connection. Nothing typed into the form counts as evidence. If the page won’t load after three tries, or the link redirects to a different site or a different kind of source, the name is turned down.
- Find the name. The connector’s name has to appear on the page as a whole word. “Link” doesn’t match “LinkedIn”.
- Check it works now. The AI has to find a statement that the connector works with Muse today. Roadmaps, waitlists and rumors are turned down.
- Quote it word for word. The AI has to copy out the sentence. Software then checks that the sentence is on the page word for word (ignoring only quote-mark style, spacing and capitals) and that it contains both the connector’s name and the word Muse. A paraphrase fails.
- Get a second opinion. A second, different AI model sees only the quote and has to agree it says what the first one claimed. If they disagree, or no second model is available even after waiting, the name goes on hold. Nothing is listed on one AI’s word.
- A company’s own page is never enough. A page on the company’s own site can’t get a connector listed, however well known the company. The name stays on hold until a Meta source or a news outlet on our list also names the connector.
- Set the status. Meta source: Confirmed. News outlet on our list: Reported. If a Meta source later names a Reported connector, the listing moves up to Confirmed.
- Write the listing. The AI drafts one to three sentences on what the source says and where it stops. A filter rejects prices, superlatives and sales language. If the draft fails, a plain template is used instead.
What our reviewer can never do
- List a name that isn’t on a page it opened itself.
- Mark a connector Confirmed without a Meta source.
- Make up what a connector can do. When Meta hasn’t published the actions, the listing says so.
- Rank, price, feature or give an award badge to anything.
- Remove a listing quietly. If the weekly re-check fails 3 weeks in a row (the pages won’t load, or no longer name the connector), the listing stays up and is flagged in public with the reason.
- List a connector from a social post by anyone other than the listed Meta executives.
- Follow instructions written inside a source page. Whatever a page says is treated as text to check, not as instructions.
Weekly re-checks
Every Monday (UTC) our software re-checks each listed connector. It opens the connector’s sources that software can open, one at a time, until one still names the connector. The listing shows the date of the last check that succeeded. A listing our software hasn’t checked yet says “Checked by a person” with the date it was listed. We never claim a machine check that didn’t happen.
Meta sources
Meta-owned sites also carry pages Meta didn’t write, so a page counts as a Meta source only on these exact sites, in these sections.
meta.com/help/,/blog/,/about/· Help Center, the Meta blog and company pagesabout.fb.com/news/· Meta Newsroomabout.meta.com/· Company pagesai.meta.com/blog/· AI at Meta blogdevelopers.meta.com/horizon/blog/· Meta developer blogmuse.ai/platform,/support· Muse Connector Platform and support pages
On a Meta site, but not written by Meta
muse.ai/s/: Shared creations made by Muse users.meta.com/experiences/,/community/: Store listings and community pages written by developers and users.
Meta executives
Public posts from these accounts count as a Meta source, but only when our software can prove the account wrote the post. On X, the post’s own data must show the executive’s account as the author. On Threads, the post’s web address must include the executive’s account name. No other social post counts, whoever wrote it.
- Mark Zuckerberg: @zuck on Threads
- Alexandr Wang: @alexandr_wang on X, @alexandr_wang on Threads
News outlets
A report from one of these outlets can get a connector listed as Reported.

Never a source
Anyone can publish on these sites, so a post there never counts, whoever wrote it.

Always on hold
These names get repeated online without a source that counts, so they go on hold whenever they come up.
- NotionOne article mentions it second-hand. Meta’s founder post, platform page and help center don’t name it.
- GranolaOne article mentions it second-hand. Meta’s founder post, platform page and help center don’t name it.
One more exclusion: we never list our publisher’s own products, or the kinds of product it sells. We don’t name them here, and suggestions for them are dropped without a log entry, so the directory can’t be used to promote them.
The first listings
The first listings were researched by a person on 19 September 2026, before our reviewer existed. They follow the same source rules, with one exception: Shopify Catalog rests on the company’s own post, which our reviewer would put on hold today. One caveat: most of them rest on Alexandr Wang’s thread on X, and software can open only the first post of a thread there. A listing says “Checked by a person” with its date until our software has really re-checked one of its sources (21 listings say so now). Listings that depend on that thread alone stay that way.
Questions
Is this an official Meta site?
No. Apps for Muse is an independent directory published by Soxoa LLC. It isn’t affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Meta. It isn’t an app store, and you can’t install anything from it.
What is a Muse connector?
A connector lets Meta’s Muse assistant use another app or service for you, like searching your email or booking a table. Meta decides which connectors exist and what they can do. We only record which ones have a source.
What’s the difference between Confirmed and Reported?
Confirmed means Meta says so: a page Meta owns, or a public post by a Meta executive, names the connector.
Reported means a news outlet on our list says the connector works with Muse, and we have no Meta source for it yet. Reported listings can be right. We mark them so you can judge for yourself.
Does an AI really decide what gets listed, with no person checking?
For new listings, no person checks each one, but the AI doesn’t decide either. (The first listings were researched by a person, and say so.) The AI reads the source, copies out the sentence that makes the claim, and drafts the listing text. Fixed rules make the decision.
The connector’s name must be on the page our reviewer opened. The quoted sentence must be on that page word for word, and must contain the connector’s name and the word Muse. A second, different AI model must agree the sentence says what it seems to. Who published the page sets the status. If any rule fails, the name is turned down or put on hold, and the review log says which rule.
Can I pay to be listed, ranked higher or featured?
No. There’s no ranking, no featured spot, no sponsorship and no affiliate link anywhere on the site. Connectors appear in the order they were listed.
My app works with Muse. Why isn’t it listed?
Because our reviewer hasn’t found a source that counts yet. Find a Meta page, or a report from a news outlet on our list, that names your app, then suggest it with that link. We read and log a company’s own announcement too, but it stays on hold until Meta or a news outlet on our list also names the connector.
A listing is wrong. How do I get it fixed?
Use the suggest form to send the source that shows it’s wrong. If a Meta page now names a Reported connector and the review agrees, the listing moves up to Confirmed. For anything our reviewer can’t sort out, write to hello@appsformuse.com.
How long does a review take?
Usually within minutes. Suggestions are picked up every 10 minutes, and a new listing can take up to about five more minutes to show up on the site. Our reviewer can only use the AI a fixed number of times a day. Reader suggestions can use at most 60% of that. The rest is kept for the daily search and the weekly re-checks, so a flood of suggestions can’t stop the directory checking itself. When the day’s allowance runs out, reviews wait until the next day (UTC).
Can I suggest the same connector again?
Yes. You can send a different link for it at any time. The same name with the same link can be sent again once the earlier decision is 7 days old. Before that, the form tells you it was already reviewed and points you to the review log.
Can I reuse the data?
Yes. The full list is published as JSON and as an RSS feed of changes. You can quote and reuse the facts with a link back to appsformuse.com. The sources belong to their publishers.
