Meta shipped Muse this week as a personal agent that does things for you: sends email, books travel, buys tickets. The obvious question for anyone who trades is whether it can handle a brokerage account too. Out of the box it can't. With Co-Invest connected, it can.

Co-Invest is Liquid's trading connector. It gives an AI agent read access to a real Liquid account and the ability to stage orders that you approve. It has worked in Claude and ChatGPT since launch, in Grok Bot since August, and as of today it works in Muse. This piece covers what that unlocks, what stays under your control, and where Muse fits next to the other agents.

## What Muse can do once Co-Invest is connected

Everything Co-Invest exposes to Claude or ChatGPT, it exposes to Muse. In practice that means:

- **Read your account.** Equity, available balance, open positions, unrealized P&L, funding paid or received, and your order history.
- **Research a market.** Live prices, order books, technical indicators, and the news feed for any market Liquid lists, plus Liquid's positioning data on where the crowd and the most profitable traders are leaning.
- **Suggest trades.** Ask for ideas and it proposes picks grounded in the news and in what you already hold, so it won't stack a second long on something you're already long.
- **Stage orders.** Market and limit orders, take-profit and stop-loss levels, leverage changes, and multi-leg baskets. Each one is staged, not sent, until you confirm.
- **Run in paper mode.** A simulated $10,000 balance on live prices, so you can try all of the above without depositing anything.

The markets are the same ones you'd see in the Liquid app: crypto perps like BTC, ETH, SOL, and HYPE; stock perps like NVDA, TSLA, and PLTR; gold, oil, and other commodities; FX pairs; index perps on the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100; and pre-IPO perps on companies like SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic.

## What Muse cannot do

Two things are off the table by design, no matter what you ask.

**It cannot move money out.** The connection Muse receives has two scopes: read the account, and stage an order. Withdrawals, transfers, and deposits are not in it. Your funds stay in your own wallet.

**It cannot execute without you.** Every order comes back as a confirmation card with the symbol, direction, size, leverage, and any protective levels. Nothing reaches the exchange until you press confirm. Muse's own architecture backs this up: Meta routes sensitive connector actions through an approval step that shows you exactly what is about to happen before it happens. So a trade from Muse has two gates, and you hold both.

## How to connect it

Setup is a single prompt in a new Muse chat, followed by a Liquid sign-in in your browser. The full walkthrough is in [You Can Now Give Meta Muse Your Trading Account](/learn/install-co-invest-muse).

<CopyPrompt text="Connect https://coinvest.liquid.trade/mcp as a connector called Co-Invest and show me the sign-in link." />

Once connected, the link is saved to your Muse account, so it works from the iOS and Android apps, the web at muse.ai, and anywhere else you talk to Muse.

## Muse vs Claude, ChatGPT, and Grok for trading

The trading capability is identical across all four, because it comes from Co-Invest rather than the agent. The differences are in what each agent is good at around the trade.

Muse's distinguishing strength is context that spans your whole day. It knows you have a flight Thursday, that you asked about gold on Monday, and that you already hold a BTC long, and it can reason across all three when you ask what to do. That's a different starting point from an assistant you open only when you want to trade.

## Is it safe to give Muse a trading account?

Safer than it sounds, for three reasons.

First, Muse never sees your Liquid password. Sign-in happens in your browser, and Muse holds only a scoped token that can't withdraw. Second, Meta runs every Muse session in an isolated environment where connector credentials are stored away from the agent itself, and a separate policy layer decides which actions need your sign-off. Third, Co-Invest's confirmation step sits on top of all of that. Even if an agent proposed something you didn't want, it would land on a card you have to approve.

That said, the usual rules apply. Start in paper mode. Keep leverage sensible. Read the confirmation card before you press it. An agent is very good at the legwork and very fast; the judgment about whether to take the trade is still yours.

## Frequently asked questions

**Does Co-Invest cost anything in Muse?** No. There's no subscription and no AI surcharge. You pay Liquid's standard trading fees plus funding on any perp you hold.

**Do I need a paid Muse plan?** No. Co-Invest works on Muse's free tier. Paid plans raise Muse's own usage limits, not anything on the Liquid side.

**Can I use Muse and Claude with the same Liquid account?** Yes. Each client gets its own connection, and they all point at the same account. Confirm a trade in one and the other sees the position immediately.

**What if Muse says it can't connect?** Try the alternate address, https://coinvest.liquid.trade with no path, and make sure you're in a fresh chat. If a sign-in attempt failed partway, ask Muse to remove the connector and add it again.
