It's been just over a year since we started Meta Superintelligence Labs. Muse Spark was our first family of models, and now Muse Wonder is a much larger and more advanced class of models that brings us to the frontier. We're releasing two models today. Muse Wonder for fast

What this launch shows

Meta posted this from an account with 2.5M followers and reached about 25.1% of them. For over 100K followers the usual multiple is 2.2, so the ranking model showed this to fewer strangers than it shows most launches.

It ranks 483 of 678 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 1 times the median of 603K views.

Likes led, 4K at 61.9 per 10,000 views against a median of 28, with the heavier signals closer to usual: 390 bookmarks, 255 replies, 59 quotes. A like is a reaction.

The post was enjoyed more than it was kept. One bookmark for every 10 likes is a low ratio for a launch, and reads as entertainment more than intent.

It starts “It's been just over a year since we started Meta Superintelligence Labs”. It carries a 1:08 video against a directory median of 66 seconds. Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 537K views in the directory.

The copy runs 50 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41. There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people.

It went out on a Monday. Launches posted on a Monday have a median of 567K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 647K.

Giving people something to reply to covers this: the conversation is what carried this one. For the next one, read why posts from large accounts under-reach: a post seen by fewer people than follow the account was held back by the ranking model.

What viral AI launches share is the guide for it: model launches are the largest category in the directory and travel on the demo. Every launch we track in Frontier Lab is on that vertical's directory page.
