Updated October 7, 2026. Rank says Muse Spark 1.1 is ahead. Price, access, and your workload can each overturn that. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public score estimate, 65.95 versus 47.69, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner. 7 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.
Code generation, repair, and software-engineering tasks
Muse Spark 1.1
Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public coding point estimate, 54.2 to 35.4, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Tool use, computer use, and multi-step task completion
Muse Spark 1.1
Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public agentic point estimate, 56.9 to 29.5, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.

The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 does not fit this workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. Muse Spark 1.1 has no comparable published API token rate.

Not enough matched evidence
A complete comparable API-rate estimate is not available for both models.
Choose a job from the LLM Selector's task catalog to see the category row it rests on, under the same basis rules as the table below. A directional row stays directional; choosing a job never creates a winner.
The same task catalog as the LLM Selector. Each job names the evidence surface it rests on; nothing here adds a new score.
Like-for-like · BenchAlign v5.8
Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher coding point estimate. Conditional score ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Coding scores combine specific tasks and setups. Match the editor, harness, and effort to your workflow.
Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

Normalized gap 5.3Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign v5.8 lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign v5.8) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the provisional lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.
Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.
1K fresh input + 500 output tokens
Muse Spark 1.1 has no comparable published API token rate.
50K fresh input + 3K output tokens
Muse Spark 1.1 has no comparable published API token rate.
200K cached + 20K fresh input + 10K output tokens
MiniMax M2.7 does not fit this workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. Muse Spark 1.1 has no comparable published API token rate.
Sourced differences are shown directly. Missing facts stay explicit instead of being inferred from a model name or family.
Maximum documented context; output-token limits may be lower.

Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public score estimate, 65.95 versus 47.69, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public coding point estimate, 54.2 to 35.4, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Muse Spark 1.1 has the higher public agentic tasks point estimate, 56.9 to 29.5, with Supported evidence for both models. The conditional ranges do not establish rank confidence.
Both models do not have comparable published API token rates, so this page does not name a universal price winner.
Muse Spark 1.1 has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 200K.
The full public result ledger is available for audit without forcing a wide desktop table onto a phone.
