Muse AI Pricing Explained: Free vs Power vs Maximum (2026)
Muse AI pricing looks simple on the surface — one free plan and two subscriptions — but the detail that actually matters is hidden in the weekly token allowances. This guide breaks down exactly what each official plan gives you, what it really costs over a year, how Meta's add-on tokens work, and where ready-made accounts fit in if you live in a country Muse has not launched in yet.
01The official Muse AI plans
Meta sells Muse AI in three tiers. The Free plan costs nothing and includes the same core features as the paid plans, but its usage is capped at a weekly token limit — around 100 million tokens per week according to launch coverage. Power costs $20 per month and raises that ceiling to 500 million tokens per week. Maximum costs $100 per month and raises it again to 3 billion tokens per week. The important point is that you are not paying for extra features: Power and Maximum buy you allowance, not tools. If you hit the weekly ceiling on a paid plan, you wait for the reset or buy more tokens.
Over a year, Power adds up to $240 and Maximum to $1,200. For a heavy user who genuinely burns through billions of tokens every single week, Maximum can make sense. For most people, the honest maths is less flattering: your allowance expires every week whether you used it or not, so a quiet fortnight is money spent on tokens that vanished.
02What is a token, in money terms?
A token is the unit Muse AI uses to measure work — roughly, the text and media the model reads and generates. Long documents, long chats, research runs and video or image workflows consume tokens far faster than short questions. That is why pricing comparisons should always be done per billion tokens, not per plan name. Power gives you about 2 billion tokens a month (500 million a week) for $20, which works out near $10 per billion — and only if you use every drop before each weekly reset.
Maximum is better value per token: roughly 12 billion tokens a month for $100, or about $8.30 per billion, again assuming perfect usage. Keep those two numbers in mind — $8 to $10 per billion is the official price of Muse AI tokens when bought through a subscription you fully exhaust.
03Add-on tokens: Meta's one-off option
Meta also lets users buy additional tokens directly inside the app (Settings, then Upgrade, then Buy additional tokens), with no subscription required. Crucially, Meta states that purchased add-on tokens do not expire, unlike weekly subscription allowance. That makes add-ons the closest official equivalent to a pre-loaded account: you pay once and the balance waits for you.
The catch is access. To buy add-on tokens you first need a Muse AI account, and accounts are only officially available in a handful of countries — the United States and Canada first, with a few more added since. If you are in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, the UK or most of the world, there is no official account to attach add-on tokens to in the first place.
04Where ready accounts fit in
A ready-made account is simply an account that already exists, with a token balance already loaded, sold for a one-time price. On this store the ladder runs from 1 billion tokens at $5 to 30 billion tokens at $10 — that is $5.00 down to $0.33 per billion, against roughly $8–10 per billion on the official subscriptions. There is no weekly reset eating your balance and no monthly bill.
The trade-off is that you are buying from an independent store, not from Meta. That is why the buying details matter: delivery should be fast and on a channel you can reply to, the balance should be exactly as advertised, and there should be a clear replacement warranty if the account fails on first login. Judge any seller — including us — on those specifics, not on slogans.
05So which option should you choose?
If you live in a supported country, have a supported payment card and use Muse AI at a steady professional volume every week, an official Power subscription is the cleanest route and Maximum rewards truly heavy use. If you live anywhere else, or your usage comes in bursts, or you simply refuse to rent tokens that expire weekly, a one-time ready account is dramatically cheaper per token and available today.
Start with the tier that matches a month or two of your realistic usage, not your most optimistic one. Tokens on a ready account wait for you — upgrading later costs the same as upgrading now.
