AA: Muse Ember's cached input is 60% cheaper and it emits a third of Haiku's output tokens
ArtificialAnlys · x · 2026-11-10
Artificial Analysis broke down Muse Ember's cost structure:
- Muse Ember (max) has the same input/output token prices as Claude Haiku 5.5 (max) and GPT-6 Luna (max), but its cached input costs 60% less — and cached input dominates cost in its agentic evaluations
- Muse Ember (max) uses roughly one-third the output tokens per task compared to Haiku 5.5 (max), indicating more concise reasoning
- Net result: $0.14 per Intelligence Index task, topping the cost-efficiency chart, vs $4.57 for Haiku 5.5
For developers running many agent tasks, cache pricing and output token counts are the real cost drivers.
