I'm Leo Park, based in South Korea. I pay for a Muse Power subscription out of my own pocket and I use it every single day for work automation. This isn't a sponsored post — it's the setup guide I wish someone had handed me when I started, because a few of the steps are genuinely easy to get wrong (especially the invite code timing).
If you follow this guide, you can start with 1 billion free tokens using my invite code ARKHZZ. When you redeem it, we both get 1B tokens — that's the whole referral mechanic, no catch beyond the 48-hour window explained below.
What Muse actually is
Muse (muse.ai) is Meta's personal AI agent. It's not just another chat window. The difference that mattered to me:
- It has a computer. Muse runs on a real virtual machine with a filesystem, a terminal, and a browser. It can do multi-step work — research, build files, run scripts — instead of only describing how you could do it.
- It has memory. It keeps notes about you, your projects, and your preferences across conversations, so you stop re-explaining context every session.
- It connects to your accounts. Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive, GitHub and more can be connected so the agent works with your actual data, not copies you paste in.
- It works while you're away. Scheduled jobs and background agents mean routine checks can run on a timer and report back only when something matters.
Think of it less as "ChatGPT-style chat" and more as a junior colleague who lives in a cloud computer and remembers everything you told it.
What I actually use it for
Concrete things from my daily routine:
- Morning briefing. A scheduled job pulls my calendar, flags anything that needs preparation, and summarizes overnight items into one short digest. I read it with coffee instead of opening six apps.
- Research I used to procrastinate on. Comparing options, reading long documents, summarizing threads — I delegate the legwork and only make the final call myself.
- Coding help. I build small automation tools for my work. Muse writes and tests code on its own machine, shows me the result, and I approve before anything is used. Having it run the code, not just print it, is the big deal.
- Repetitive admin. Drafting messages, organizing files, reformatting documents, turning messy notes into clean records. The boring 20-minute tasks that used to eat my evenings.
None of this is magic. It's a capable agent plus memory plus tools, and the compound effect over a few weeks is what sold me.
Step-by-step setup
1. Sign up — you need a US IP at this moment only
Go to https://muse.ai/join?ref=ARKHZZ and create your account.
One quirk that trips people up: the signup itself must be done from a US IP address. If you're outside the US, a VPN set to a US location for the signup step is fine. After your account exists, you can use Muse from your normal Korean, Japanese, or other local IP with no problem — the restriction is only at the moment of signup.
2. Get the app (optional but recommended)
The Muse app is distributed through the US App Store / Google Play, so you may need a US store account to install it. The web version at muse.ai works fully in the meantime.
3. Enter the invite code within 48 hours — this is the part people miss
The 1 billion token bonus only works if you enter the code within 48 hours of signing up. After that window, the code does nothing. So do this immediately after signup:
- Open Muse (app or web)
- Go to Settings → General → Usage
- Enter the invite code: ARKHZZ
- Confirm — 1,000,000,000 tokens are credited to your account, and I receive the same as the inviter
Seriously: set a reminder if you can't do it right away. The 48-hour deadline is the single most common way people lose the bonus.
4. If age verification appears
Some accounts get an age-verification prompt during setup. If the standard route stalls, linking a Facebook account for age verification has worked as an alternative path. It's worth trying before giving up.
Tips from a few weeks of daily use
- Talk to it like a person who keeps notes. Tell Muse your preferences, your recurring projects, how you like reports formatted. The memory compounds — week three feels noticeably smarter than day one because of accumulated context, not a model change.
- Delegate outcomes, not keystrokes. "Check these three sources every morning and only message me if X changes" beats micromanaging each step.
- Start with one automation. Pick your most annoying recurring task, automate that, then expand. Trying to automate your whole life on day one just creates a mess to supervise.
- Keep approval gates for anything external. Sending messages, publishing, paying — I keep those behind my explicit approval. Muse supports that workflow well.
The code, one more time
- Invite code: ARKHZZ
- Sign up: https://muse.ai/join?ref=ARKHZZ
- Redeem at: Settings → General → Usage, within 48 hours of signup
- Reward: 1 billion tokens for you, 1 billion for me
That's it. If you try it, I'm curious what your first automation is — drop it in the comments.
