According to Beating Monitor, Meta has set a contributor low-price tier for Muse Spark 1.2 and Muse Code. Users who permit Meta to use their prompts and model outputs to train subsequent models receive significant discounts. For this tier, the prices per million tokens are $0.10 for input, $0.002 for cache hits, and $0.20 for output. In comparison, DeepSeek V4 Flash charges $0.14, $0.0028, and $0.28 respectively—Muse is approximately 29% cheaper across all three metrics. Users unwilling to share data must use the standard tier, where input, cache hit, and output prices rise to $1.25, $0.15, and $4.25—12.5x, 75x, and 21.25x higher than the contributor tier prices, respectively. The contributor tier also has lower usage limits: a maximum of 60 requests per minute and 2.1 million tokens. The standard tier supports up to 3,000 requests per minute and 4 million tokens. DeepSeek has just announced an upcoming significant API price increase, though specific rates have not yet been disclosed. Meta has already reduced Muse’s pricing to 29% below DeepSeek’s current rates—Zuckerberg has now taken up the mantle of the price killer.
