Muse AI Agent Faces Similarity Allegations to OpenClaw

Meta’s new consumer-facing AI agent, Muse, has quickly gained traction, topping App Store charts and amassing an estimated 600,000 daily active users in the US according to Apptopia. This launch coincides with broader industry attention on AI agents, including the platform Instinct, whose creator is reportedly fundraising at a $2.5 billion valuation. Amidst this surge in AI agent development, social media users have alleged that Muse is directly built on the foundational platform OpenClaw.

The primary basis for these allegations is that Muse and OpenClaw share identical names for their core files, such as SOUL.Md and memory. These similarities have drawn comparisons between the two systems, suggesting a direct technical lineage for Meta’s new product. The claims highlight a potential connection between the widely used OpenClaw platform and Meta’s latest consumer-facing application.
