How to Create Videos in Meta Muse with AI Video Maker
Quick answer
To create videos in Meta Muse with AI Video Maker, you need a working connection to its video API, a supported generation model, and approval for the quoted cost. Meta's own Muse Video model is a separate product: the official announcement still describes it as coming soon. Meta's model announcement
Status checked September 26, 2026: AI Video Maker's Muse connector application is pending review, and we have not yet verified the complete consumer Muse workflow. The steps below are a compatibility-first setup plan, not a claim that an approved connector is already available. You can use the separate website workflow while integration is pending.
What Muse, Muse Video, and AI Video Maker mean
These names describe different parts of the workflow:
- Muse is the assistant where you want to request and manage the task.
- Muse Video is Meta's video-generation model.
- AI Video Maker is our independent video service. Its skill gives a compatible agent instructions for quoting, generating, and retrieving videos through our API.
- A connector provides access to a service; installing instructions alone does not establish an authenticated connection.
Muse Image is also separate: Meta's image-generation announcement describes creating and editing still images. Access to an image tool does not establish access to our video API.
For an AI Video Maker request, the selected model generates the footage. Muse would organize the request and return the result. A MiniMax H3 output should therefore be described as a MiniMax H3 video created through AI Video Maker, rather than footage generated by Meta's Muse Video model.
How to create videos in Meta Muse: check access first
Begin with the AI Video Maker skill setup page. It contains current instructions and API pricing. Follow the path supported by the environment you are actually using; a local installation in another agent does not automatically connect a cloud Muse session.
Meta says connectors appear in its directory after review and testing. Our application is not evidence of completed approval. Muse Connector Platform
1. Ask Muse to assess compatibility without generating
Use this proposed setup prompt:
Read https://aivideomaker.ai/skill and its linked API documentation. Check whether this Muse session can securely connect to AI Video Maker and run its workflow. Explain any missing capability. Do not ask me to paste an API key into chat. Do not generate anything or spend credits.
A useful answer identifies an actual supported connection path. If Muse only summarizes the documentation, setup has not succeeded. If secure credentials or API access are unavailable, stop the integration attempt and use the website alternative below.
2. Connect your account through a supported secure flow
Once a supported path is confirmed, sign in to AI Video Maker and follow its connection instructions. Keep credentials in the supported private credential mechanism, outside the conversation. Ask for a non-billable account check before any generation.
The account check should establish that the session can access your account and report available credits without displaying the secret. Do not treat a copied install prompt or an assistant's assurance as proof of connection. The API quickstart explains the service contract.
3. Request one small quote
Start with a single scene. This makes the result easier to assess and keeps the initial request limited:
Using AI Video Maker, quote a five-second MiniMax H3 video at 720p Turbo: a candle on a wooden table, its flame flickering gently, with a slow camera push-in. Show the model, settings, credit charge, and whether my balance covers it. Do not generate yet.
At the current published API rate, that duration and setting cost 15 credits, or $0.15 at list price. The live quote controls the actual request; a different model, duration, or setting may change the charge.
4. Approve a specific generation
After reviewing the quote, use a bounded instruction:
Generate the quoted five-second video once. You may spend up to 15 API credits. If the quote exceeds that limit, stop and ask me. Return the task ID and the completed video link. If waiting times out, check the existing task instead of creating another.
This is a proposed prompt, not a recorded Muse session. It describes the behavior to verify once the connection works. Keep the first task's identifier until you have downloaded the result.
5. Review before requesting variations
Watch the entire clip. Check the subject, camera movement, beginning and ending, and any unwanted visual changes. If the scene is close, revise one element at a time and obtain a new quote before another generation.
Save the output promptly: the API documentation states a 24-hour output-retention window. Keep the prompt and settings beside the downloaded file so you can reproduce the creative direction later.
What does the API workflow cost?
The skill page's current API offer includes 50 introductory credits with your first API key. At 15 credits per five-second 720p Turbo clip, that covers three clips with five credits remaining. Installation itself is free; generation uses API credits.
These are API terms. A website subscription does not provide unlimited API generation, and website plan benefits should not be applied to the agent workflow. Always check the displayed quote before spending.
If Muse cannot connect yet
You can still make the scene through the website's Text to Video workflow. Sign in, choose the available model and settings, enter the creative prompt, and review the displayed price before generating. This is a separate website workflow with its own plan and credit rules.
If you have a reference photo, use the photo-animation guide to prepare the image and motion brief. For the native Meta model's status, see whether Muse Video is available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I create videos in Meta Muse with AI Video Maker today?
We have not yet verified the full consumer Muse integration, and connector review is pending. Begin with the compatibility check; if it cannot establish secure API access, use AI Video Maker's website separately.
Does installing the skill unlock Meta's Muse Video model?
No. The skill calls AI Video Maker's service using a supported model. It does not grant access to Meta's unreleased model or establish official Meta approval.
Do I need an API subscription?
AI Video Maker API use does not require a recurring subscription. Generation draws from API credits, which are separate from website subscription entitlements.
Why ask for a quote before generating?
A quote lets you check the exact request and charge before creating a billable task. A spending limit also gives the agent a clear point at which it must stop and ask.
What if Muse says the video timed out?
Ask it to check the existing task using the saved task ID. Waiting can time out while a task is still processing; requesting a new generation could create a second charge.
