Meta launched Muse Spark 1.1, a vision-language model tuned for agentic tasks, and opened its first paid model API.
The model supports text, images, and video, exposes tool use and adjustable reasoning, and is already available in Meta AI and meta.ai. Meta says it leads several tool-use benchmarks, ties top models on Artificial Analysis’ Intelligence Index at low cost, and is especially strong on agentic workflows such as delegation, context management, and computer use.
