Meta has launched an API for Muse Spark 1.1 at $4.25 per million output tokens — 6–12x cheaper than Anthropic Opus 4.8 and OpenAI GPT-5.5, which run $25–$50. On the MCP Atlas benchmark the model scored 88.1 — first place among all competitors — and 62.1 on Humanity's Last Exam, also a leader. Context window: 1M tokens.
