Meta Muse Ember: cheap agent model, claims not yet checkable
Verdict: Pending · Model releases · Adoption and cost
TechCrunch reports Meta's new low-cost Muse Ember at $0.10 per million input tokens, but no Meta page was found and Artificial Analysis does not list it yet.
Meta Superintelligence Labs released Muse Ember, described as its lightest model, aimed at repeated agent work.
- Claim: Meta says Ember is cheaper and scores higher than Anthropic’s Haiku and OpenAI’s Luna on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, at $0.10 per million input tokens. TechCrunch
- Evidence: None independent yet. The comparison is a Meta chart, and the article gives no scores. TechCrunch
- Caveats: No Meta primary page was found, and the article does not state licence or distribution. Artificial Analysis had no Ember entry at 20:30 UTC. Artificial Analysis
- Why it matters: A cost-per-task claim against the small models is what to check once AA lists it.
Verdict history
- Nov 9, 2026, 12:30 PM PT: Pending. Only TechCrunch read. Meta's blog index (last post 27 July in the page I read) and a search found no Ember page; AA's Meta list had no Ember entry. Needs the Meta post and an AA score.
