Verdict
When to choose each
Muse Wonder
Where it leads
- Higher Arena Text score, 1507 Elo vs 1412 Elo
- Higher Arena WebDev score, 1652 Elo vs 1399 Elo
- Accepts audio input
- A cached-input rate, $0.20 per 1M tokens
Best for
- Multi-file coding changes and multi-hour agent runs
- Sub-agent orchestration where capability matters more than cost
Watch out for
- Meta lists it as a preview, and the Model API serves Standard mode only, with no discounted Contributor tier
- The higher-capability Muse Wonder Full is only available through Muse Code subscriptions, not per token
Nemotron 3.5 Super VL
Where it leads
- Open weights you can run yourself
Best for
- Agents that read screenshots, charts and documents
- Self-hosted multimodal agents on NVIDIA hardware
Watch out for
- NVIDIA calls it 5x faster than the next best open model in its class; that speed claim is not measured independently here
- NVIDIA sells no per-token API for it, so hosted prices come from third parties
