META--
Hayes, a veteran of Meta with over 14 years of experience, has held significant roles at both Meta and Instagram. He most recently served as the vice president of product for generative AI at Meta [1]. His appointment as the head of Threads marks a significant milestone for the two-year-old product, which has gained over 380 million users as of July 2025 [2].
The appointment is part of Meta's ongoing efforts to develop Threads into a standalone platform. Mosseri noted in a staff memo that the app has grown into a platform with its own culture and energy, with more than a third of daily users following different accounts on Threads than on Instagram [1]. Hayes will report directly to Mosseri and will oversee all product managers, engineers, designers, data scientists, and user experience researchers working on Threads [1].
Meta has been investing heavily in Threads, rolling out new features such as direct messaging to make the app more akin to X, formerly Twitter [1]. The appointment of Hayes signals Meta's commitment to the app's future and its potential as a direct competitor to X in the real-time social discourse market.
