Meta Model API pricing

How Meta Model API charges, what to know before you commit, and what you'd pay at your usage — next to what the alternatives would cost for the same thing.

What the model leaves out

Standard-tier prices for muse-spark-1.3 (also 1.2 and 1.1); cached input is $0.15 per million and there is no long-context premium. The contributor tier is left out because it trades your data for the lower price.

Before you commit
  • The contributor tier ($0.10 / $0.20 per million) is cheaper because Meta may use your prompts and outputs to train its models; the standard tier does not.
  • Web search grounding costs $2.50 per 1,000 queries on top of tokens.
  • Rate limits are per team: 3,000 requests and 4M tokens a minute on the standard tier, 100 requests a minute on the contributor tier.
