Meta releases Muse Ember, a new lightweight model for agent execution

Meta releases Muse Ember lightweight model at ten cents per million tokens.

“At 10 cents per million input tokens, Ember is significantly cheaper than frontier competitors like Haiku and Luna.”
— TechCrunch

Why it matters

Meta's $0.10-per-million-token pricing pressures margins across inference providers and shifts economics for cost-sensitive deployments. Teams building on LLM APIs must recalculate unit costs and may accelerate on-premise inference to avoid recurring API expenses.
