Meta Opens Muse Spark API and Debuts Muse Spark 1.1

The launch marks Meta's entry into paid model APIs and signals a push to embed Muse Spark across its apps.

Overview

  • Meta made the Muse Spark API available as a U.S. public preview and released an upgraded Muse Spark 1.1 for developers.
  • Muse Spark 1.1 is multimodal and agent-capable and can write and debug code, operate software and call external tools, and interpret text, images and video.
  • Meta published per-token pricing of $1.25 per million input tokens and $4.25 per million output tokens and offered registered developers a $20 trial credit.
  • The model is already live in the Meta AI app and web in a 'Thinking' mode and Meta plans to roll Muse Spark into WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and future devices to replace Llama-based agents.
  • The move follows Muse Spark's April private tests and reflects Meta's effort to commercialize advanced models and compete with OpenAI and Anthropic for developer adoption.
