Meta launched Muse Spark 1.1, a closed vision-language model optimized for agentic tasks including tool use, computer use, and multi-agent orchestration, alongside the Meta Model API — the company's first paid model access. The model ties GPT-5.6 Luna and GLM-5.2 on Artificial Analysis' Intelligence Index while offering substantially lower output token prices ($4.25/M vs. $25–$50/M for comparable closed models), and tops MCP Atlas and JobBench tool-use leaderboards. Meta's pricing strategy, subsidized by advertising revenue, is framed as a direct attack on competitors' API margins and could compress inference costs industry-wide.
