“Anyone interested in joining has to ask Muse to put them on the list”
DisputedConfidence: MODERATE

Reasoning

The claim is supported by Meta’s own blog, developer FAQ, and independent tech news that say users must request to be added. However, a separate Meta press release claims the program is open to all via a simple ‘Join’ button, and Reddit users report auto‑enrollment without contacting Muse. The contradictory evidence prevents confirming the claim as universally true.

On confidence: Multiple authoritative sources conflict; while several official and independent outlets state a request is required, another official announcement and user reports indicate open or automatic enrollment, creating uncertainty.

Important context

Policy may have changed over time; earlier statements required a request, later communications suggest a more open process. The evidence does not specify dates, so it’s unclear which version is current.

Limitations

No timestamps on the sources to establish chronology, and the Reddit discussion is anecdotal. Without up‑to‑date official documentation, we cannot determine the present‑day requirement definitively.
