Muse Spark

A model for understanding complex work and carrying it through.

Concept illustration of Muse Spark

Meet Spark.

Muse Spark is Meta's cloud-hosted AI model for software development, computer use, tool calling and long multi-step work. It powers Muse Code and much of the consumer Muse product. Developers can also use Meta Model API, an interface that lets their software send requests to the model.

What Spark is good at

Understand a codebase

Connect relevant files, dependencies and the change you want to make.

Use software and tools

Work through the interfaces supplied by the surrounding application.

Stay with a longer task

Use context across multiple steps, then inspect the outcome.

Read beyond text

Reason about images and documents alongside your instructions.

Find and fix a broken checkout.

Follow a task from the repository to a reviewable correction.

Illustrative scenario
  1. 1

    Understand the failure

    Connect the user’s report with the address form, relevant code and expected checkout behavior.

  2. 2

    Form a hypothesis

    Consider whether the empty optional field is being treated as a missing required value.

  3. 3

    Choose the next check

    Ask the development tools to reproduce both the empty-field and completed-field cases.

  4. 4

    Evaluate the result

    Use the tool output to decide whether to revise the hypothesis or propose a correction for review.

Illustrative reasoning process. Muse Code supplies the editing and testing workflow.

Real examples

Technical architecture

Spark runs through Meta Model API (and Muse Code). Applications send requests to Meta's hosted service, where the model can plan, call tools, read multimodal inputs and continue across long contexts.

Your request passes to Muse / Spark for reasoning, context and planning, then browser, file and code tools, and result and review. Connected services require permissions. Review feeds back into planning.
Conceptual flow. The model proposes work; software executes tools and enforces configured controls. Steps may repeat.

Keep in mind

  • Runs in the cloud — requests are processed by Meta. Standard API prompts and completions are not used for training; Contributor requests permit training. No-training is not the same as zero retention.
  • Audio understanding in Spark 1.3 is not fully supported; use Spark 1.2 for audio understanding or Voice Transcribe for speech-to-text.
  • Useful results still depend on good tooling, approvals and review
  • Not a substitute for human judgment on consequential actions
