Product preview

Overview

Meta AI is Meta's free assistant, powered by its Llama models and embedded where billions already chat: WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and a standalone web app. It answers questions with web search, generates images inline and can be invoked inside normal conversations by typing @Meta AI.

Its strategy is reach: the core experience is free and lives inside apps people open daily, while Meta One subscriptions (launched September 2026) add higher AI usage. Quality trails the frontier assistants and availability depends on region, but as an everyday helper inside the social apps you already have, friction is essentially zero.
