New to Muse?Muse is Meta's AI assistant. Launch529 is an app you add to it, and once it is on, you can ask Muse to do this for you: compare 529 college savings plans, research schools and project education costs. It takes about two minutes and you can turn it off any time.

Is it safe to connect?

What Muse can see: It does not ask you to sign in, so it cannot see your accounts. It only sees what Muse sends it from your request.

Before it acts: Read what Muse plans to do before you approve it, and remove the app from Muse when you stop using it.

How to add it to Muse

Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Copy the request below and paste it into Muse. Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Not in Muse's Connectors list yet. Muse can still use it: its page gives you a request to paste into Muse.

Also use it in ChatGPT or Claude

Launch529 is a remote MCP server, so any assistant that can add a custom connector by link can use it. Same link, same tools.

Add it to ChatGPT
  1. 1

    Open ChatGPT settings

    In ChatGPT, open Settings, then Connectors (called Apps & Connectors on some accounts).

  2. 2

    Turn on developer mode

    Under Advanced settings, switch on Developer mode. That is what lets you add a connector by link.

  3. 3

    Create the connector

    Choose Create, give it a name, paste the link as the MCP server URL, and save. If it needs a sign-in, ChatGPT asks for it here.

  4. 4

    Use it in a chat

    Start a chat, open the tools menu, pick the connector, and ask. ChatGPT asks before it runs a tool the first time.

Custom connectors need a paid ChatGPT plan, and on Team, Enterprise and Edu accounts only an admin can add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in ChatGPT

Add it to Claude
  1. 1

    Open Claude settings

    In Claude, open Settings, then Connectors.

  2. 2

    Add a custom connector

    Choose Add custom connector, give it a name, and paste the link.

  3. 3

    Connect and use it

    If it needs a sign-in, Claude sends you to it. Then turn the connector on in a chat from the tools menu and ask.

Custom connectors are available on paid Claude plans; on Team and Enterprise accounts an admin may need to add them. Our "Working" label means the server answered us; it cannot tell whether your plan lets you add it. All connectors that work in Claude
