What each model is for
Claude Fable 5
Anthropic · Frontier
Anthropic's most powerful model, a new tier above Opus. Fable 5 keeps the 1M-token context window and multimodal input (text, image, file), and targets the hardest long-horizon agentic, coding and reasoning work. Priced at $10/$50 per MTok with $1.00 cached input.
- Most capable Claude to date
- State-of-the-art long-horizon agentic execution
- 1M-token context
- Text, image & file input
Muse Spark 1.2
Meta · Frontier
Meta Superintelligence Labs' flagship line, and Meta's entry into the agentic coding market via the Meta Model API rather than open weights. Muse Spark plans work, delegates to subagents, writes scripts or drives UIs directly, and debugs from screenshots. It pairs a 1M-token context window with full multimodal input (images, video and PDFs) plus built-in search with citations, structured output and parallel tool calling.
- Agentic execution with subagent delegation
- Coding, with particular strength on frontend and design work
- 1M-token context
- Images, video and PDF input
Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper, Claude Fable 5 or Muse Spark 1.2?
Muse Spark 1.2 is the cheaper of the two by a wide margin: $2.15 per million tokens blended against $22.00, roughly 10.2× less. A single 100K-input, 10K-output job costs $0.168 on Muse Spark 1.2 against $1.50 on Claude Fable 5. Blended cost weights input at 70% and output at 30%; price your own token split for an exact answer, since the cheaper model on a blended basis is not always cheaper for your workload.
Which has the larger context window, Claude Fable 5 or Muse Spark 1.2?
Muse Spark 1.2 takes a 1,049,000-token context window against 1,000,000, giving a modest edge for long documents or whole-codebase work. The context window caps everything in a single request: prompt, retrieved documents, conversation history and the model’s own output all share it.
Can I compare Claude Fable 5 and Muse Spark 1.2 on my own numbers?
Yes. Open both in the side-by-side comparison tool to see every field at once, or use the token calculator to price your actual prompt and monthly request volume against each model. Both are free and need no sign-up.
