Editorial policy

How we decide what’s true about Muse, how we show you the evidence, and what we do when we get something wrong.

Last updated 2026-09-30

Our principles

  • Useful first. A page exists because readers need the answer, not because a keyword exists.
  • Nothing invented. We don’t make up features, prices, limits, error messages, test results, screenshots, quotes or statistics.
  • Evidence you can see. Important claims link to their source, and each is labeled with where it comes from.
  • Independent. We’re not affiliated with Meta, and advertisers don’t influence coverage.

Source hierarchy

When sources disagree, we rank them in this order and say so on the page when the disagreement matters:

  1. Meta’s official announcements (newsroom, research blog, product pages)
  2. Meta’s official documentation (Help Center, developer docs)
  3. The Muse product itself, as observed in our own testing
  4. Established technology journalism
  5. Industry publications
  6. Community reports (Reddit, forums, social posts), used to find questions, never as proof on their own

Evidence labels

What each label means
LabelMeaning
TestedWe did this ourselves on a real Muse account. The page lists the date, device, app surface and plan.
Per MetaStated by Meta in an official announcement or its Help Center. We report it; we haven’t independently confirmed it.
ReportedReported by credible press or other reliable third parties, but not confirmed by Meta’s own pages or our testing.
User reportsDescribed by users in public forums. Useful signals, not established facts.
AnnouncedMeta has said it’s coming, but it wasn’t available when we checked.
Not testedWe couldn’t test this ourselves. The information comes from the sources cited.

First-hand testing

Tests are performed by Alison Jack on his own Muse account. For every test we record the date, device and operating system, Muse surface (iPhone, Android, web, WhatsApp or Mac), app version where shown, and plan. We redact personal information from screenshots before publishing.

Muse’s features and availability vary by country, plan and rollout stage. When a feature isn’t available to our account, we label it as based on Meta’s documentation or reporting, and we never describe it as tested. When a page includes no first-hand testing, it says so near the top.

How we use AI tools

We use AI assistants to help with research organization, drafting, editing and building this website. We don’t use them as a source of facts. Every factual claim is checked against the sources above, and AI tools are never used to generate or imitate test results, screenshots or personal experience. The author reviews and is responsible for every published page.

Dates and updates

  • Published is the date a page first went live. We never change it to make old content look new.
  • Updated changes only when we make a meaningful change to the content.
  • Facts checked is the last date we re-verified the page’s time-sensitive facts (prices, availability, connectors and similar).

Time-sensitive facts are tracked internally and re-checked on a schedule: weekly for pricing, availability and new releases during Muse’s launch period, and monthly for feature behavior.

News vs guides vs opinion

News articles report what changed, when, and what’s still unknown, and they link to the primary source. Guides explain how to do something and are kept up to date. When we give an opinion or recommendation, we frame it as ours and explain the reasoning. We don’t declare universal “winners” in comparisons; we explain which option suits which needs.

User reports and rumors

We read community discussions to learn what people are struggling with. We don’t present a user report as fact, and we don’t publish rumors about unreleased features as confirmed.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it and note the correction on the page. See the corrections policy, or email info@metamuseai.site.

Advertising

We plan to show display ads. Ads are labeled “Advertisement”, are visually separated from articles, and never influence what we write or recommend.
