NVIDIA Frontier Open weight Not in FlowHunt

Nemotron 3 Ultra

Nemotron 3 Ultra is a top-tier frontier AI model, developed by NVIDIA and released in June 2026. As an open-weight model, its trained weights are publicly available — you can self-host it, fine-tune it on proprietary data, or run it on-premise without API dependencies. It supports a 262K-token context window, adequate for most documents and multi-turn applications.

Nemotron 3 Ultra was released on June 4, 2026 as NVIDIA’s top open-weight language model, designed for deployment on Blackwell-generation GPU clusters (B200, GB200 NVLink). At 55B active parameters from a 550B total MoE pool, Ultra was built to maximise accuracy on NVIDIA hardware using TensorRT-LLM’s Blackwell-specific optimisations. At launch it held the highest Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index score of any fully open-weight model — making it the benchmark reference for enterprise customers investing in NVIDIA’s Blackwell infrastructure who wanted an included, inference-optimised model alongside their hardware purchase.

What to Use Nemotron 3 Ultra For

Scientific & Technical Reasoning

It handles demanding scientific reasoning, research literature summarisation, and knowledge-intensive tasks across STEM disciplines.

Self-Hosted & Private Deployments

Nemotron 3 Ultra is open-weight (55B/550B MoE parameters) — its trained weights are publicly available for download and self-deployment. Run it on your own GPU hardware or private cloud to ensure data never leaves your environment, eliminate per-token API costs at scale, or fine-tune the model on proprietary datasets.

Strengths and limitations

Strengths

  • Advanced scientific Q&A
  • Self-hosted & data-private deployments (open-weight)
  • Long-context tasks (262K context window)
