Meta has unveiled two new AI models, Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full. According to the company, they compete with the best in the industry. Both are available starting today to Muse Code subscribers. Meta also says Wonder can be used through the Meta Model API.

Meta says it plans to use Wonder to power its Muse AI agent, starting with subscribers. It also says it will develop specialized models that it "can bring to all Muse users." It has not given details or specific timelines for either plan.

The company claims the new models can rival the leading models from OpenAI and Anthropic, including GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5 and Claude Fable 5.1. It bases this on internal test results across several industry benchmarks. It is also unclear how they compare with Google's Gemini 4 Argon, whose capabilities are still coming to light.

The launch is part of Meta's push to regain ground in the AI race. The company has invested billions in talent and infrastructure. It previously introduced Muse Spark, the first model from its reorganized Superintelligence Labs division, as well as the Muse agent. It also launched the Muse Image image model. Its strategy places heavy emphasis on bringing useful AI agents to the general public through Muse.
