- We show that labelled Thompson groups and twisted Brin--Thompson groups are all acyclic. This allows us to prove several new embedding results for groups. First, every group of type $F_n$ embeds quasi-isometrically as a subgroup of an acyclic group of type $F_n$ that has no proper finite-index subgroups. This improves results of Baumslag--Dyer--Heller ($n=1$) and Baumslag--Dyer--Miller ($n=2$) from the early 80s, as well as a more recent result of Bridson ($n=2$). Second, we show that every finitely generated group embeds quasi-isometrically as a subgroup of a $2$-generated, simple, acyclic group. Our results also allow us to produce, for each $n\geqslant 2$, the first known example of an acyclic group that is of type $F_n$ but not $F_{n+1}$. These examples can moreover be taken to be simple. Furthermore, our examples provide a rich source of universally boundedly acyclic groups.
