ParametersA rough measure of how big the model is. More parameters usually means more capable and more expensive to run, though it is a poor guide on its own — a smaller, newer model often beats a larger, older one. | 16B | 30B |
| API pricingUSD per 1M tokens · lower wins | ||
Cheapest inputLowest input rate across third-party providers, excluding the lab itself. The cheapest endpoint may run a quantised build or a shorter context — see "Available from" on the model page. | — | $0.05Novita |
Cheapest outputLowest output rate across third-party providers, excluding the lab itself. May come from a different provider than the cheapest input. | — | $0.20Novita |
These models have no shared benchmark scores. | ||
BullshitBench v2Nonsense detection — Given a confidently-worded but nonsensical prompt, does the AI spot that it makes no sense and push back — instead of playing along and inventing an answer? The score is how often it clearly called out the nonsense. Higher is better. | — | 28% |
LiveCodeBenchCompetitive coding — Coding problems published so recently the AI can't have seen them in training — a contamination-free test of raw programming skill. Higher is better. | — | 68.3% |
GPQA DiamondScience — Graduate-level science questions in biology, physics, and chemistry — hard enough that subject-matter PhDs score around 65%. Higher is better. | — | 73% |

Kimi-VL and Nemotron 3 Nano don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks, so there's no direct head-to-head comparison. Kimi-VL shipped 249 days before Nemotron 3 Nano, so benchmark comparisons should account for the intervening progress.
Kimi-VL has 16B parameters, while Nemotron 3 Nano has 30B. Kimi-VL is open weight, while Nemotron 3 Nano is open source.
Direct benchmark comparisons are unavailable — Kimi-VL and Nemotron 3 Nano don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks.
