Call a Meta model in one request

Every endpoint shares the same lifecycle: submit to the queue, poll the status URL, fetch the result. Swap the endpoint to switch models — nothing else changes.

cURL

curl -X POST https://queue.modelrunner.run/meta/sam-audio/separate \
  -H "Authorization: Key $MRUN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "prompt": "..." }'
# → { "request_id": "...", "status_url": "...", "response_url": "..." }

Use Meta models from Claude & Cursor

Connect the ModelRunner MCP server once and your AI assistant can run every Meta model on this page as a tool — authorized via OAuth, results returned as hosted URLs in the conversation.

Frequently asked questions

What Meta models can I run on ModelRunner?

The catalog has 3 public Meta models: SAM Audio — Separate, Segment Anything 2 (Auto-Segment) and musicgen. They cover audio-to-audio, image-to-image and sound. Each one has its own page with a free playground, the full input schema, and copy-paste code.

How much do Meta models cost?

Pay-per-use, with no subscription: the one Meta model billed per second of audio costs $0.001667, and every page publishes its own rate — some are tiered, so a lower resolution or a shorter clip costs less per run. You buy credits and pay only for what you generate.

How do I call a Meta model from the API?

POST to https://queue.modelrunner.run/meta/sam-audio/separate with an Authorization: Key header and the input fields as the top-level JSON body (no wrapper object), then poll the returned status_url and fetch the result from response_url. The JavaScript SDK (@modelrunner/client) wraps that in a single subscribe() call, which is the one place an { input } object is used.

Can I run Meta models from Claude or Cursor?

Yes. Connect the ModelRunner MCP server (https://mcp.modelrunner.run/mcp) once and all 3 Meta models become tools your assistant can call with run_model — authorized over OAuth 2.1, so no API key goes into a config file. Results come back as hosted URLs in the conversation.

Where is the source code or paper for Meta models?

1 of the 3 Meta models in the catalog link their own upstream sources — musicgen — covering some combination of code repository, paper, weights and licence. The links are listed on this page and on each model's own page.
