Meta launched Muse Wonder and Wonder Full as new frontier models. Wonder costs $4 per million input tokens and $20 per million output tokens via Meta API. Wonder Full is only available through Muse Code subscriptions at $50 or $200 per month. Consumers can access Wonder in the Muse app for $20 per month. Meta claims Active Memory and Active Focus let the model keep working through blockers. Wonder leads MemoryBench and sits second on the Artificial Analysis index behind Opus 5.5. A test run of Wonder in Pokémon Red spent $96 and 792 turns stuck in Viridian Forest. Opus 5.5 completed the same game for $8.44 in 271 turns. Meta defended against accusations of benchmark training in its launch post. Users reported privacy concerns about Muse agents reading private messages. Meta stated users may have forgotten earlier permissions. The author argues scores are a starting point but real performance matters more.
