🤖Nvidia Nemotron 3 Ultra, 550B MoE Open Model, Lands Today
TL;DR
Nemotron 3 Ultra goes live June 4 on Hugging Face, ModelScope and OpenRouter. The 550B-parameter mixture-of-experts model claims 5x faster inference and 30% lower cost than open frontier peers, aimed squarely at long-running agents.

Key Points
550B-parameter mixture-of-experts model built for long-running agentic workloads in coding, research and enterprise workflows
Nvidia claims up to 5x faster inference and up to 30% lower cost versus open frontier models in its class
Available June 4 via Hugging Face, ModelScope, OpenRouter and build.nvidia.com as NIM microservices
Post-trained for agent harnesses including LangChain Deep Agents, OpenClaw, OpenHands and OpenCode
Ships alongside NemoClaw blueprints and the OpenShell secure runtime, with CrowdStrike and Palantir already building on Nemotron
Why It Matters
Nvidia keeps commoditizing the model layer to sell more compute. A cheap, fast open 550B model tuned for agent harnesses puts direct price pressure on closed-model APIs for exactly the long-running workloads enterprises are scaling now.
