## Price

- Muse: Muse has a free tier with 100 million tokens a week, plus plans at $20/month and $100/month.

- Claude: Claude researches, writes and returns editable files.

## Where you talk

- Muse: Muse is in its own app, on muse.ai, in the Mac app and in WhatsApp.
- Claude: Claude is on the web and in its desktop and mobile apps.

## Acting for you

- Muse: Muse suggests ideas on its own and asks for approval before sensitive actions.
- Claude: Claude acts when you hand it a task and asks permission before acting in connected apps.

## Availability

- Muse: Muse is limited to adults in the US and Canada.
- Claude: Claude works in every country where it is offered, including the EU and UK.

- Pick Muse if most of what you delegate is buying, booking or selling, and you are based in the US or Canada.

## Verdict

Choose by the shape of the task, not by brand. Muse is free for errands in the US and Canada, and Claude at $20/month is the better tool for anything that ends as a document.
