Nemotron 3 Super (free) is a 120B-parameter hybrid Mamba-Transformer MoE model that activates only 12B parameters per token, which is what keeps compute cost down while targeting complex multi-agent workloads. It ships a 1M-token context window and caps completions at 262,144 tokens. On Artificial Analysis benchmarks it scores 25.4 on the intelligence index, 37.7 on coding, and 8.7 on agentic tasks — text-in, text-out only, no vision.
This is a free variant of NVIDIA's paid nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b (which lists at $0.085/M input, $0.4/M output), so you get the same 12B-active-parameter architecture at zero cost. Its 1M-token context window beats 78% of catalog models. It supports optional reasoning (medium or low effort, on by default) plus tool calling and structured outputs — a combination most free models in the catalog don't offer.
Questions
- How much does Nemotron 3 Super (free) cost via API?
- It's free — $0 per 1M input tokens and $0 per 1M output tokens, with no OpenKey fee applied since 3% of zero is zero. The paid version of this same architecture, nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b, charges $0.085/M input and $0.4/M output before OpenKey's fee.
- What is Nemotron 3 Super (free)'s context window?
- It supports a 1,000,000-token context window, larger than 78% of models in the catalog. That's enough to hold roughly 750,000 words of text in a single request, well past what's needed for most document or codebase analysis tasks. Max completion length is capped at 262,144 tokens.
- Is Nemotron 3 Super (free) actually free to use?
- Yes — both prompt and completion pricing are $0.0 per 1M tokens, and it's one of 25 free models available on OpenKey. Unlike the paid nvidia/nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b variant, this version carries no per-token cost while running the same 12B-active-parameter MoE architecture.
- Does Nemotron 3 Super (free) support tool calling and structured outputs?
- Yes, it supports tools, tool_choice, response_format, and structured_outputs, alongside reasoning, seed, and temperature parameters. Reasoning is optional but enabled by default at medium effort, with low effort also available. There's no vision support — input and output are text only.
- How does Nemotron 3 Super (free) compare to Llama 3.3 Nemotron Super 49B V1.5?
- Llama 3.3 Nemotron Super 49B V1.5 costs $0.4/M for both input and output tokens, while Nemotron 3 Super (free) costs nothing. The two also differ architecturally: the 49B model activates its full parameter set per token, while this 120B MoE model activates only 12B parameters per token, trading a larger total model for lower compute per request.
