Muse Ember 46

Model reading. Released 9 November 2026 (30). No deprecation policy or notice period found, per the platform reading (0 of 12).

No SDK of Meta's own (0 of 15, 0 of 10). 30 + 0 + 8 + 8 + 0 = 46.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 73

Closed service, read on the model lines. The newest release note is dated 24 October 2026 and the price page was updated on 31 October (30). The four retirement notices read gave 21 to 33 days, and eligible callers are switched to a successor at its price. No minimum notice period is written, and DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (directly supplied) was moved to the 1017 version under the same ids on 17 October 2026 in a notice dated two days later (7 of 12). 18 retirement notices from 21 April to 22 October 2026, 12 of them since 3 August (3 of 8). Dated release notes and announcements, ticket and phone support around the clock and a Q&A community (13 of 15). Replies on the THCLI repository were not sampled (3 of 10). Tencent Cloud SDK 3.0 in several languages covers the control plane and tencent-tokenhub-cli 1.0.2 was published on 30 October 2026. No inference SDK of its own (12 of 15). The CLI has four releases since 15 September 2026, lists no runtime dependencies and needs Node.js 18 or later. CI not checked (5 of 10).

Muse Ember 20

Published rubric. No payment protocol (0). Per-token prices for both tiers published without a login, read 9 November (20). No free API allowance found; billing needs a card, per the platform reading (0). Browser sign-up (0). 0 + 20 + 0 + 0 = 20.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 35

No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Per-token prices for every model are public in CNY for Guangzhou and Singapore, with DeepSeek's peak and off-peak rates (20). Each account gets 1M free tokens per language model, valid for a year, in a campaign running to 31 December 2026. No card is mentioned, but the account needs real-name verification, so this line takes 15 of 20. A person signs up and completes real-name verification in a browser. Keys can then be created in code or by thcli auth login, but only from that account (0).

Muse Ember 60

Model reading. No OpenAPI file; the Markdown reference is the contract, per the meta-model-api listing (0). llms.txt and Markdown copies of every page (10). The Muse Ember page and choose-a-model page say what to hand it and what not to (hard single-shot coding, knowledge-heavy questions, visual coding), with model ID, inputs, context, max output and effort range (18 of 20). JSON Schema tools and output, reasoning effort an enum, per the platform reading (12 of 15). Curl, Python and TypeScript examples and the platform's error guide (15). A versioned model ID and a dated launch post, with no API changelog (5 of 15). 0 + 10 + 18 + 12 + 15 + 5 = 60.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 73

Router, scored on the API lines. No OpenAPI file for the inference routes. Field pages document the OpenAI Chat Completions, OpenAI Responses and Anthropic Messages formats as TokenHub implements them, and the control plane is a Tencent Cloud API 3.0 service (version 2026-03-22) with typed parameters, API Explorer and SDKs (12 of 25). An llms.txt at cloud.tencent.com/document/product/1823/llms.txt links a Markdown copy of each docs page (10). The docs say which models support thinking, tools, structured output and caching, how TokenHub departs from each standard protocol, and which DeepSeek model suits which job. The quickstart's examples still use deepseek-v3, which is not in the model list, and Qwen3.5 stays in the list with a past shutdown date (13 of 20). Protocol pages list each field with type, required flag and default, and control-plane parameters carry enums and required flags (10 of 15). Examples in curl, Python, Node.js, Java and Go, and an error page listing 30 codes with HTTP status, cause and fix (14 of 15). Paths carry /v1, release notes are dated monthly from 7 April to 24 October 2026, and the control-plane API has a dated history of 26 releases to 18 September 2026 (14 of 15).

Muse Ember 72

Model reading. Tool calls, parallel calls, computer use and search grounding, with tool_choice limited to auto per the platform reading (15 of 20). Strict structured output (15). Automatic prompt caching, cached input at 4% of the input price (15). A 1,048,576-token context, but requests over 200K input tokens bill at three times the rate for the whole request (12 of 15). No batch endpoint (0). No SDK of Meta's own; OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs against compatible endpoints (0). OpenAI-style errors with fixes and retryable codes (15). 15 + 15 + 15 + 12 + 0 + 0 + 15 = 72.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 83

Router, read on the model lines. Function calling is marked on most chat models in the model list, with behaviour depending on the model routed (14 of 20). Structured output is marked per model and missing on the MiniMax and Qwen models, and an unsupported response_format returns code 400006 (12 of 15). Cache-hit prices are published per model, Kimi K3.1 Pro lists five-minute and one-hour cache writes, and a guide covers prompt_cache_key and the X-Session-ID header for instance affinity (14 of 15). Most listed chat models have contexts of one million tokens, a judgement call since a router has no default model (15). Batch at half price covers only Hy3 and Hy4 preview, reads and writes JSONL in the customer's own COS bucket and is documented for the Guangzhou endpoint (5 of 10). No TokenHub inference SDK. The OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs work with a changed base URL, and Tencent Cloud SDK 3.0 and the thcli CLI cover the control plane (8 of 10). Errors return a code, English and Chinese messages, the source, the upstream code and status and a request ID, and stream errors arrive as SSE error frames (15 of 15).

Muse Ember 64

Platform readings are the meta-model-api listing's of 4 November. Team keys, named, revocable, no scopes (20 of 30). Standard mode only, so content isn't used to train Meta models under the terms, with safety use reserved (17 of 20). Retention 'as needed' with zero retention through sales (10 of 15). Usage dashboard by model, no per-call log (5 of 15). No security.txt on dev.meta.ai, a bug bounty and a security commitments page, no named certification (12 of 20). 20 + 17 + 10 + 5 + 12 = 64.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 71

Router, read on the model lines. Bearer keys can be limited to chosen models and inference services, up to 200 source IP ranges and daily, monthly or total token quotas, can be disabled or deleted, and can be created in code through CreateApiKey with signed Tencent Cloud credentials. Keys are long-lived with no expiry setting or built-in rotation (26 of 30). Clause 2.17 of the terms says inputs are not used to train Tencent Cloud's own models, and the FAQ says data is not used for training. Inputs to third-party deployed models (DeepSeek's directly supplied ones) go to DeepSeek under its terms (14 of 20). Clause 2.14 keeps data only as long as the service needs, with no periods stated. When a customer asks for generated content without AI labels, Tencent Cloud keeps logs of who received it for at least six months. No zero-retention option was found (7 of 15). Per-call audit logs (request ID, key, client IP, status, tokens, latency) and optional full call logs go to the customer's CLS, billed separately, with usage by key and a monitoring dashboard (14 of 15). No security.txt on cloud.tencent.com, www.tencent.com or tokenhub.tencentmaas.com (404). Tencent's bug bounty through TSRC lists Tencent Cloud in scope. No certification for TokenHub was checked (10 of 20).

Muse Ember 40

Model reading, for the surface it's called on, Meta Model API. No status page with readable history, per the meta-model-api listing's 4 November check (0), so no readable incident history (5). Rate limits published per team and per model, 3,000 RPM and 4,000,000 TPM for muse-ember-1.0, read 9 November (15). 429 and 503 with Retry-After, backoff guidance and rate-limit headers, per the meta-model-api listing (15). No SLA found (0). Muse Ember carries no preview label, but the API opened as a public preview in July and no general-availability notice was found, so half, as for the platform (5). 0 + 5 + 15 + 15 + 0 + 5 = 40.

Tencent Cloud TokenHub 46

Hosted reading. No public status page was found. status.cloud.tencent.com did not answer and the Tencent Cloud health dashboard documentation answered with a bot check (0). With no page there is no incident record to read (5 of 30). The announcements carry one incident, DeepSeek's directly supplied models unavailable from 9:06 to 13:04 Beijing time on 15 October 2026 after a fault at DeepSeek, compensated with vouchers. Rate limits are per model, shown in the console and returned by DescribeModelQuota. The public docs give numbers only for batch jobs (20 created a minute, 10 active), image models (5 concurrent) and DeepSeek V4 Flash and Pro (2,500 and 500 concurrent), with the rules for self-serve increases (8 of 15). Six 429 codes separate RPM, TPM, TPD, concurrency and upstream capacity, 429s may carry Retry-After and the docs advise exponential backoff. No idempotency guidance, though inference calls are not writes (13 of 15). The TokenHub SLA promises 99.5% monthly availability with vouchers of 10, 25 or 50 per cent of the month's fee. It excludes free use and third-party deployed models such as DeepSeek's directly supplied ones (10). Generally available since 7 April 2026, with some models marked preview (10).
