Short answer

Muse Video is not available yet. Meta previewed it in July 2026 alongside Muse Image, calling it 'coming soon' to creators and Meta AI, with competitive performance on prompt adherence and visual fidelity. As of late September 2026, there's still no release date or API.

Is Muse Video out yet?

No. Meta gave an early preview of Muse Video in July 2026, alongside Muse Image, describing it as "coming soon" to creators and inside Meta AI. As of late September 2026 — including at the Connect 2026 event, where Meta announced Muse Charm and other updates — there's still no release date.

What Meta has shown so far

In the July preview, Meta said Muse Video offers competitive performance on prompt adherence, visual fidelity, and temporal consistency — the standard benchmarks video-generation models are judged on. Beyond that comparison, Meta hasn't published technical details, pricing, or an access plan.

Don't confuse this with Muse's real-time avatar feature

About two weeks after Muse the agent launched in September 2026, it gained a real-time animated avatar you can talk to. That's a different thing from Muse Video — the avatar is part of how you interact with the agent, not a video-generation tool you can use to create clips.

What to watch for

Muse Video opening up — with an API or even just wider access — would be the biggest moment for anyone tracking the Muse family closely. Video generation costs far more to run than chat, so when it does launch, expect a paid, credit-based model rather than a free tier. We'll update this page the day that changes.

FAQ

Is Muse Video available yet?
No. Meta previewed it in July 2026 as 'coming soon' and hasn't given a release date since, including at the Connect 2026 event in September.
Is Muse Video the same as Muse's real-time video avatars?
No, these are different features. Muse Video is a standalone AI video generator. The Muse agent separately gained a real-time animated avatar feature about two weeks after its September launch — that's part of how you interact with the agent, not a video-generation product.
Will Muse Video have an API?
Not yet, and Meta hasn't said whether or when one is coming. We'll update this page as soon as that changes.
Is FreeMuseAI the official Muse website?
No. FreeMuseAI is an independent guide and is not affiliated with Meta. The official Muse website is muse.ai.
