04 — Questions

Which should you choose?

Which is better: GPT-6 Luna or Muse Spark 1.3?

GPT-6 Luna is the better all-round choice, scoring 83/100 against Muse Spark 1.3 (73). It leads on capability and price. Muse Spark 1.3 wins on inputs & features. The score weighs capability 50%, price 25%, inputs & features 15%, context window 10%. Capability uses the average of shared benchmarks (FrontierMath Tiers 1–3 and OTIS Mock AIME 2024–2025), because GPT-6 Luna has no Capabilities Index score yet.

Which is cheaper, GPT-6 Luna or Muse Spark 1.3?

GPT-6 Luna is cheaper at $0.10 input / $0.50 output per million tokens (official OpenAI API price). Muse Spark 1.3 costs $1.25 input / $4.25 output per million tokens (official Meta API price). At a typical mix of three input tokens to one output token, that is $0.20 per million tokens for GPT-6 Luna versus $2.00 for Muse Spark 1.3 (10× as much).

Which scores higher on benchmarks?

Not every model here has a Capabilities Index score, so we compare the average of shared benchmarks (FrontierMath Tiers 1–3 and OTIS Mock AIME 2024–2025): GPT-6 Luna 88.9% and Muse Spark 1.3 86.8%. On individual benchmarks: FrontierMath Tiers 1–3 — GPT-6 Luna 79.0%, Muse Spark 1.3 74.4%; OTIS Mock AIME 2024–2025 — Muse Spark 1.3 99.2%, GPT-6 Luna 98.9%.

Which is better for coding?

There are no published SWE-bench Verified results for GPT-6 Luna and Muse Spark 1.3 yet, so there is no like-for-like coding score. On overall capability, GPT-6 Luna leads, which tends to carry over to coding, but test on your own codebase. Both support tool calling for agent workflows.

Which has the bigger context window?

Their context windows are effectively the same size: GPT-6 Luna 1,050,000 and Muse Spark 1.3 1,048,576 tokens. Maximum output per response: GPT-6 Luna up to 128,000, Muse Spark 1.3 up to 131,072 tokens.

Which can read images, PDFs, audio or video?

GPT-6 Luna accepts text, images and PDFs; Muse Spark 1.3 accepts text, images, PDFs, audio and video. Muse Spark 1.3 handles the widest range of inputs.

Are any of these open source?

No. GPT-6 Luna and Muse Spark 1.3 are proprietary and only available through APIs and apps.

Which is newer?

GPT-6 Luna is the newest, released Sep 22, 2026. Muse Spark 1.3 came out Sep 2, 2026. Knowledge cutoff: GPT-6 Luna May 18, 2026.

How do you decide the winner?

Each model gets a 0–100 score on capability (50%, independent benchmark results); price (25%, blended price per million tokens (3 input : 1 output), log scale); inputs & features (15%, image, PDF, audio and video input, tool calling, structured output and reasoning); context window (10%, maximum tokens per request, log scale). Dimensions missing for any model are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so every model is judged on the same evidence. Specs and prices come from public model listings and the labs’ own API pages; capability scores come from independent benchmark runs. Data updated Oct 4, 2026.
