Meta releases Muse Wonder models and says it has caught up with frontier AI
Meta has released two new AI models, Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full, and says it has caught up with the frontier of AI after more than a year of rebuilding its AI efforts. Muse Wonder is rolling out to subscribers through Meta's API and in Muse Code at $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens. Muse Wonder Full is limited to Muse Code subscribers on the $50 and $200 monthly tiers.
Key points
- Meta launched Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full, saying it has caught up with frontier AI.
- Muse Wonder API pricing is $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens.
- Muse Wonder Full requires a $50 or $200 monthly Muse Code subscription.
What happened: Meta has introduced Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full, which the company describes as "a major leap toward personal superintelligence." Engadget reported that Meta says the models put it back at the frontier of AI after more than a year and tens of billions of dollars spent rebuilding its AI work.
The details: Meta says the models are particularly strong at legal, financial and health related tasks and deliver "frontier coding performance." Both add "active memory," which carries relevant context across conversations, and "active focus," which Meta says lets an agent keep working toward a goal when a task gets hard. Muse Wonder is rolling out now to subscribers through Meta's API and in Muse Code, priced at $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens. Muse Wonder Full is available to Muse Code subscribers on the $50 per month "power usage" tier or the $200 per month "maximum usage" tier.
Background: Meta has said it expects to spend as much as $145 billion this year on its AI plans. Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg told the Financial Times that reaching this point "both required a large amount of compute and investment, and a lot of very rigorous scientific work."
What to watch: Meta plans to bring Wonder to its personal agent, Muse, starting with paid subscribers, but has not given a date. The company has not disclosed model sizes, benchmark scores or whether the weights are open, and it was not reported whether Muse Wonder Full will reach the API.
Our take
Teams comparing coding and agent models now have another paid frontier option with published API pricing, though Meta has not shared benchmark results to judge it by.
