Report: ByteDance's Doubao given 6-day deadline to clone Muse cloud agent
sujingshen · x · 2026-09-29
According to a report by 大厂日爆, ByteDance's Doubao team has been ordered to build a rival to the viral Muse agent in just 6 days, with integration on Sept 27 and a demo review on Sept 30. Muse isn't a chatbot: each user gets a cloud VM running a real browser with authorized email/calendar access, and tasks keep running after the user leaves. It hit 2.8M downloads in 12 days and 640K US DAU, with Meta adding a dedicated monitoring agent to vet everything it sends out. The author doubts Doubao can ship a production-grade agent for hundreds of millions of users that fast.
