Meta Enterprise Platform will sell the Muse assistant and Meta's agent tools to companies, putting Meta up against OpenAI and Anthropic for corporate customers.
Mark Zuckerberg announced Meta Enterprise Platform on September 28 on Meta's newsroom and on X, describing it as the "next major pillar" of the business alongside advertising and the consumer apps. Revenue from companies could help Meta earn back some of the heavy sums it is spending on AI.
In July, Zuckerberg had said Meta was drawing up plans to sell AI to companies, naming options such as APIs, agents for businesses and possibly selling computing power directly.
To run the platform, Meta hired Chirantan Desai, known as CJ, who had been chief executive of database software maker MongoDB. As Chief Enterprise Platform Officer, he reports directly to Zuckerberg, who pointed to Desai's enterprise record and industry network. Earlier, Desai ran product and engineering at Cloudflare and worked at ServiceNow for almost eight years, ending up as its president and chief operating officer.
Desai had run MongoDB for less than a year, since November 2025, and his sudden exit sent its shares down more than 17%. The company named Dev Ittycheria, who led it for 11 years before him, as interim chief executive while its board searches for a permanent replacement.
Meta says the platform will first offer businesses and software developers its full technology stack, including Muse, Meta Business Agent, the Muse API and Muse Code. Muse is the personal AI assistant Meta released earlier in September. It can carry out tasks for a user such as sending emails and booking trips.
Meta will be competing for those customers with OpenAI and Anthropic as well as Google, Microsoft and Amazon. It has not yet said when the platform's products will be generally available or how they will be priced.
