Muse Spark Contributor API: $0.10/$0.20 and the Training Licence
Muse Spark 1.2 and 1.3 Contributor API pricing is $0.10 per 1M input and $0.20 per 1M output because Meta may train on your prompts. No tools. Never a default.

Muse Spark 1.3 Contributor and Muse Spark 1.2 Contributor are Meta routes, live as muse-spark-1.3-contributor and muse-spark-1.2-contributor. The list price is $0.10 per 1M input tokens and $0.20 per 1M output tokens.
That is not a sale. Meta's standard Muse Spark rate is $1.25 / $4.25. The gap is what the training licence is worth. Prompts and completions you send to these IDs may be used to train future Meta models. RouterPlex does not train on your data; Meta may, on this route only.

Muse Spark Contributor API pricing #
| Edition | Input / 1M | Output / 1M |
|---|---|---|
| Contributor (this catalog) | $0.10 | $0.20 |
| Standard Muse Spark (Meta, not sold here) | $1.25 | $4.25 |
RouterPlex does not sell the standard editions, and it does not reprice Contributor up to $1.25 / $4.25. The cheap rate belongs to the user who granted the licence.
A $5 prepaid balance buys roughly 50 million input tokens, or 25 million output tokens, if a workload used only one category. That math is irrelevant if the prompts are confidential.
The training licence is the product #
Three rules, copied from the catalog note and the privacy policy:
- Do not send confidential, personal, or client-owned material. Once the prompt leaves the gateway, RouterPlex cannot retrieve it from Meta.
- Never a default, never a fallback. A request reaches Contributor only when the
modelfield namesmuse-spark-1.2-contributorormuse-spark-1.3-contributor. - Meta may limit availability to certain regions.
Every other model on this catalog stays on the no-training rule. See Privacy.
Tool calling is not supported #
Both Contributor IDs are tool_call: false on RouterPlex. The upstream serves function calls in a shape standard OpenAI clients do not read (a second choice, not choices[0]). Advertising tools would be a lie, so the catalog does not.
If you need tools, pick another model on the same key — GLM-5.3, Qwen3.8 Flash, Grok 4.6.
Cost per agent turn #
One 40,000-token prompt returning 2,000 tokens, no cache:
| Model | Cost per turn | Training on prompts |
|---|---|---|
| Muse Spark Contributor | $0.004 | Yes |
| Qwen3.8 Flash | $0.007 | No |
| GLM-5.3 Flash | $0.007 | No |
| Gemini 3.8 Flash (intro) | $0.038 | No |
The arithmetic: 40,000 × $0.10 / 1M + 2,000 × $0.20 / 1M = $0.004 + $0.0004 = $0.0044. The dollars are not the expensive part.

Call Muse Spark Contributor with RouterPlex #
Only use this if you have read the training licence and still want the ID.
curl https://api.routerplex.com/v1/chat/completions \-H "Authorization: Bearer $ROUTERPLEX_API_KEY" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"model": "muse-spark-1.3-contributor","messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Summarise this public README in five bullets."}]}'
import osfrom openai import OpenAIclient = OpenAI(api_key=os.environ["ROUTERPLEX_API_KEY"],base_url="https://api.routerplex.com/v1",)response = client.chat.completions.create(model="muse-spark-1.3-contributor",messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Rewrite this public changelog for humans."}],)print(response.choices[0].message.content)
Put Contributor on its own key with a hard budget, so a default model string elsewhere in the app cannot wander onto it. The live Muse Spark 1.3 Contributor page is the number this route will actually bill.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
How much does Muse Spark Contributor cost?
Meta prices the Contributor editions at $0.10 per 1M input and $0.20 per 1M output. The standard Muse Spark editions are $1.25 / $4.25. RouterPlex bills the Contributor list rate and does not reprice it up to the standard rate.
Does Meta train on Muse Spark Contributor prompts?
Yes. The discount is the training licence. Prompts and completions you send to muse-spark-1.2-contributor or muse-spark-1.3-contributor may be used to train future Meta models. Do not send confidential, personal, or client-owned material.
Will RouterPlex ever route me to Muse Spark by default?
No. A Contributor model runs only when you name it explicitly in the request's model field. It is never a default and never a fallback.
Does Muse Spark Contributor support tool calling?
Not on RouterPlex. Tool calling is advertised as false for both Contributor IDs because the upstream does not return tools in a form standard OpenAI clients can use.
What is the context window?
About 1,048,576 input tokens, with 131,072 maximum output tokens on this catalog, for both 1.2 and 1.3 Contributor.
Can I use Muse Spark with the OpenAI SDK?
Yes, as a chat-completions call against https://api.routerplex.com/v1 with model ID muse-spark-1.3-contributor or muse-spark-1.2-contributor. Do not send tools. See Privacy for the training exception.
