“Today we are starting the next major pillar of our business, Meta Enterprise Platform, to help businesses use AI to grow and transform in new ways as well,” Zuckerberg wrote.
Meta said the first phase will center on a collection of existing and newer tools, including Muse, Meta Business Agent, Muse API and Muse Code. The company is positioning the platform as an enterprise layer around its broader AI capabilities rather than as a single standalone product.
Desai will lead the effort after spending less than a year as MongoDB’s CEO and president. Before MongoDB, he led product and engineering at Cloudflare and previously spent nearly eight years at ServiceNow, including roles as president and COO.
Zuckerberg described Desai as an enterprise software executive with experience across AI, infrastructure, business applications and security.
Desai said the platform will focus on packaging Meta’s AI technology for business use, with security and privacy built into the products from the start.
“Our goal is to make Meta the place enterprises come to scale their businesses,” Desai said.
The leadership change had an immediate market impact. MongoDB shares fell 18% following the announcement, while Meta shares declined about 4%.
MongoDB’s board named Dev Ittycheria interim president and CEO. Desai had replaced Ittycheria in November 2025 after Ittycheria spent 11 years leading the company.
Meta’s enterprise push comes as the company continues to expand its investment in AI products and infrastructure. Its Muse personal AI assistant has also gained consumer traction, recently overtaking OpenAI’s ChatGPT as the top free iOS app.
The new platform gives Meta a more direct path into enterprise AI, where the company plans to offer businesses access to its agents, developer tools and underlying technology stack under a single initiative led by Desai.
