Meta’s Muse AI agent is listed at ₹1,799 in India for the Power plan and ₹8,999 for the Maximum plan. The prices showed up before any launch. But do not reach for your card yet — Muse has not launched in India, and you cannot buy it here today.

Quick Read
- The Hindu found rupee prices listed on 9 November: Power at ₹1,799 and Maximum at ₹8,999. Meta has not confirmed the prices are final, and has announced no India launch date.
- Indian users are on a waitlist. Muse is not in Indian app stores, and card payments do not work here yet.
- Separately, Meta’s Muse AI models are now on Google Cloud — Mark Zuckerberg announced it, and Google chief Sundar Pichai welcomed them in.
The Hindu spotted the rupee prices on 9 November 2026, at 8:55 PM IST. Power is listed at ₹1,799 and Maximum at ₹8,999. The prices are slightly higher if you pay through Google Play or Apple billing. They sit close to the US rates: $20 a month for Power and $100 a month for Maximum. But one detail is not settled — The Hindu does not confirm that the India prices are monthly. The US plans are monthly, and several other sites assume the same for India, but that is an assumption, not a fact. This post says “listed at” for that reason.
Meta has not confirmed that these prices are final. It has not announced an India launch date. And it did not answer The Hindu’s questions about the prices. So treat ₹1,799 and ₹8,999 as listed prices, not launch prices. They could change before the real launch.
What you get for the money
Muse is Meta’s personal AI agent. It was introduced on 8 September 2026 at Meta Connect 2026. The idea is simple: an agent that does tasks across your apps — email, travel booking, and more — without you giving it step-by-step orders each time.
The two paid tiers differ in how much they can do. Per Meta’s help page, the Power plan allows 500 million Muse tokens a week, and the Maximum plan allows 3 billion Muse tokens a week. Tokens are the small chunks of text an AI reads and writes, so the weekly token limit is really a limit on how much work the agent can do for you. There is also a free tier with a usage limit, for people who want to try it first.
What is missing is the fine print. Meta has not said what counts toward the token limit, or what happens when you hit it mid-week. Those answers will only come with the launch.

Why you cannot buy it yet
Indian users are on a waitlist right now. Muse is not listed in Indian app stores. The web and WhatsApp versions can be reached, but the card-payment step does not work in India — there is no payment-processor link set up for Indian cards yet. That is the hard block: even a user who wants to pay ₹1,799 today cannot complete the payment.
This is a common pattern for US tech launches. The price page goes up first, the payment pipes come later, and the launch date follows. Until Meta wires up Indian payments and puts Muse in Indian app stores, the waitlist is where Indian users stay.
Muse models land on Google Cloud
Here is the fresh twist, and it is a big one. Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg posted on X that three Muse AI models — Muse Ember, Muse Spark 1.3 and Muse Wonder — are now available on Google Cloud’s Model Garden, its store of AI models for businesses. Google chief Sundar Pichai replied in public: “Congrats and welcome to the model garden, excited to serve our Google Cloud customers!” The Times of India reported the exchange on 10 November.
The three models do different jobs. Muse Ember, launched on 9 November, is the smallest and cheapest of the three — built for repeat, everyday agent work. Muse Spark 1.3 is the workhorse for long, multi-step jobs. Muse Wonder is Meta’s most capable model, built for hard software engineering work. All three handle text, image, audio and video, and all three work with up to 1 million tokens of context.
Do not mix this up with the ₹1,799 consumer price. The Google Cloud move is the models side of Muse — Meta’s AI models rented out to companies through Google’s cloud, next to Google’s own Gemini models. The ₹1,799 Power plan is the consumer agent side, for one person. Same Muse name, two different products, two different buyers. For Indian developers, the Google Cloud news matters more today: they can already use these models through Google Cloud, while the consumer agent is still stuck on a waitlist.

How ₹1,799 stacks up against rivals
On price alone, Muse Power sits in the same lane as its rivals. ChatGPT Plus costs ₹1,999 a month in India, and Google’s Gemini AI Pro costs ₹1,950 a month, per a Financial Express comparison of India prices. Muse Power at ₹1,799 would be the cheapest of the three mid-tier plans — by ₹150 against Gemini and ₹200 against ChatGPT — if the listed price holds and if it is monthly, which is still unconfirmed.
The Maximum plan is a different story. At ₹8,999, it costs more than four times the Power plan, and it sits below ChatGPT Pro, which Indian price trackers list from ₹10,699 a month. Maximum is aimed at people who run heavy agent work all week — 3 billion tokens a week is far more than a casual user needs. Most readers should look at Power first, and only think about Maximum if they hit Power’s weekly limit again and again.
Price is not the whole choice, though. ChatGPT and Gemini are already live in India, with UPI payments and full app-store listings. Muse is not. A cheaper price on a waitlist is still a waitlist.
What happens next
Three things to watch. First, whether Meta confirms the ₹1,799 and ₹8,999 prices, and whether it confirms monthly billing for India. Second, whether Indian card payments start working — that is the real launch signal, more than any press release. Third, whether the Google Cloud models get India pricing of their own, since developers here can already reach them through Google Cloud.
Until then, the honest summary is this: the price is listed, the product is not here yet, and the models side of Muse is already open for business on Google Cloud.

FAQ
Has Meta’s Muse launched in India?
No. Muse has not launched in India. Indian users are on a waitlist, Muse is not in Indian app stores, and card payments do not work here yet.
What is the Muse price in India?
Power is listed at ₹1,799 and Maximum at ₹8,999. Meta has not confirmed these are final prices, and monthly billing for India is unconfirmed — the US plans are monthly, but that does not prove the India plans are.
What are Muse Ember, Spark 1.3 and Wonder?
They are Meta’s three Muse AI models, now available on Google Cloud’s Model Garden. Ember is the smallest and cheapest, Spark 1.3 handles long multi-step work, and Wonder is the most capable model for hard coding jobs. This is the models side for developers, not the ₹1,799 consumer plan.
Desk-original added context
Our own comparison table, from India prices checked in October 2026 (Financial Express comparison; ChatGPT Pro from Indian price trackers — re-check at checkout, prices change): Muse Power ₹1,799 (listed, monthly billing unconfirmed) vs ChatGPT Plus ₹1,999 a month vs Gemini AI Pro ₹1,950 a month — Muse Power would be ₹150 cheaper than Gemini AI Pro and ₹200 cheaper than ChatGPT Plus, if the listed price holds. Muse Maximum ₹8,999 vs ChatGPT Pro from ₹10,699 a month. Our own maths: Maximum costs 5 times the Power plan (₹8,999 ÷ ₹1,799 = 5.0), and its 3 billion weekly tokens are 6 times Power’s 500 million. Our own timeline: 8 September 2026 — Muse introduced at Meta Connect 2026; 9 November 2026 — Muse Ember launches, and The Hindu finds the India prices listed; 10 November 2026 — Zuckerberg posts the Google Cloud news and Pichai welcomes Muse to the model garden.
