About

Nemotron 3 Ultra is NVIDIA’s open-weight reasoning and orchestration model, with 55 billion active parameters in a 550-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts design. Its hybrid architecture combines Transformer and Mamba components. It accepts text and produces text, with reasoning and tool support. The model has a 262,144-token context window and a maximum output of 16,384 tokens. Open weights are available under the Hugging Face identifier nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Ultra-550B-A55B-BF16. For API use, input costs $0.5 per 1M tokens and output costs $2.2 per 1M tokens. The listed release date is June 4, 2026. This configuration is identified as nvidia/nemotron-3-ultra-550b-a55b, and its official page is on OpenRouter. Its text-only input and output make the interface straightforward to account for when considering it for a stack, while the large total parameter count and MoE structure define its model profile.

Who it is for

Teams looking for an open-weight model for text reasoning, orchestration, or tool-supported workflows may consider it. Its 262,144-token context window and per-million-token input and output prices are relevant when estimating fit.
