The full release adds inter-session messaging, multi-agent Workflows with a control room, and a rewind feature to roll back conversations and code changes. Meta also released a developer-preview SDK and the Muse Session Protocol (MSP), letting developers embed Muse Code agents into their own apps and tools, similar to Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK and OpenAI's Codex SDK. Despite the aggressive pricing, Muse Code's original pay-as-you-go 'Contributor' tier, which requires opting in to data sharing with Meta, remains a point of contention among engineering leaders, and independent testing found it consumes more tokens and produces weaker results than Claude Code on some tasks. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How much does Meta's Muse Code cost per month now that it's out of beta? Muse Code offers three subscription tiers: Everyday Usage at $5 per month, High Usage at $15 per month with three times the usage, and Power Usage at $50 per month with ten times the usage. The $5 plan typically provides around 10 to 50 requests every five hours depending on task complexity, alongside existing pay-as-you-go pricing options. _Compare AI coding agent subscription costs and usage limits on daily.dev before picking a plan._ ### What is the Contributor tier in Muse Code and why is it controversial? The Contributor tier cuts Muse Code's pay-as-you-go rates to $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.20 per million output tokens, versus $1.25 and $4.25 on the Standard tier. The catch is that Contributor users must opt in to having their prompts and completions used to improve Meta's products, a trade-off that several engineering leaders said would rule it out for proprietary code. _Weigh data-sharing trade-offs in AI coding tools by following pricing changes on daily.dev._ ### What new features does Meta's Muse Code SDK add for building custom coding agents? The developer-preview SDK lets developers control Muse Code programmatically, starting and resuming sessions, sending instructions, handling responses, and reacting to agent actions without manual terminal use. It works alongside the Muse Session Protocol (MSP), which external clients use to communicate with Muse Code sessions via Meta's TypeScript SDK or a direct implementation in another language. _Track new agent SDKs like this one on daily.dev when building custom coding tools._ --- Tags: [#ai-agents](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-agents), [#claude-code](https://daily.dev/tags/claude-code) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/meta-s-claude-code-rival-exits-beta-with-three-new-subscription-tiers-and-it-s-pushing-hard-on-pri-zbwisysmf) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Meta’s Claude Code rival exits beta with three new subscription tiers — and it’s pushing hard on price","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/meta-s-claude-code-rival-exits-beta-with-three-new-subscription-tiers-and-it-s-pushing-hard-on-pri-zbwisysmf","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/meta-s-claude-code-rival-exits-beta-with-three-new-subscription-tiers-and-it-s-pushing-hard-on-pri-zbwisysmf"},"datePublished":"2026-09-01T14:56:23.905Z","dateModified":"2026-09-01T14:57:15.318Z","description":"Meta has launched Muse Code out of beta, introducing three new subscription tiers priced from $5 to $50 per month, well below rival Claude Code and Codex...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/1ce836b62a0e500cff13ce77cfe47678?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/1ce836b62a0e500cff13ce77cfe47678?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The New Stack","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The New Stack","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/newstack","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/newstack"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/meta-s-claude-code-rival-exits-beta-with-three-new-subscription-tiers-and-it-s-pushing-hard-on-pri-zbwisysmf","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"ai-agents,claude-code","timeRequired":"PT6M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The New Stack","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/newstack"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Meta’s Claude Code rival exits beta with three new subscription tiers — and it’s pushing hard on price"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/meta-s-claude-code-rival-exits-beta-with-three-new-subscription-tiers-and-it-s-pushing-hard-on-pri-zbwisysmf#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"How much does Meta's Muse Code cost per month now that it's out of beta?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Muse Code offers three subscription tiers: Everyday Usage at $5 per month, High Usage at $15 per month with three times the usage, and Power Usage at $50 per month with ten times the usage.
