Muse can now make phone calls for its users. Alexandr Wang announced the launch on X and called it a feature lots of users have been asking for, and the Muse account confirmed the rollout as outbound calling, available now for paid subscribers in the US.
Both posts focused on time on hold. The Muse account said Muse can handle the wait times while users get free time back. Wang listed the kinds of calls he expects people to hand over: insurance, cable, the DMV, and dinner reservations.
From Beta to a Paid Launch
Outbound calling has been in testing since the autumn. Muse’s phone call beta widened on September 16 to users who had asked to be notified first, after internal testing in August. In that beta, Muse placed calls to US businesses for bookings, stock checks, and quotes, and reported back with a transcript and a summary.
Thursday’s launch changes who can use it. It is no longer a beta, and access is for paid subscribers in the US. That puts calling alongside the other paid-first rollouts this autumn, including Muse Mail, which reached paid subscribers in the US and Canada before a wider release was promised.
Why Calling Is a Different Kind of Task
Most of what Muse does runs through apps and connected services, but phone calls reach the businesses that do not work that way. Many local services, insurers, and government offices still resolve bookings, billing questions, and appointments by voice, often after a hold queue and a phone tree.
Calling was a recurring request during the beta period. A user can hand Muse the call at the start and return to the result, rather than spending the wait time on hold themselves.
