Gemini 3.1 Pro vs Llama 4 Maverick

Gemini 3.1 Pro

Google DeepMind

Gemini 3.1 Pro is a multimodal language model from Google DeepMind, released in preview in February 2026 as a point-version upgrade to Gemini 3 Pro focused on improving reasoning depth, factual grounding, and coding and agentic task performance. The model accepts text, images, video, audio, and PDFs as inputs across a 1M token context window, extending the multimodal breadth of the Gemini 3 series with a companion endpoint specifically optimized for custom tool use in agentic pipelines. Google describes it as built to refine the reliability and performance of the Gemini 3 Pro series, reflecting an incremental engineering iteration rather than an architectural overhaul.

Llama 4 Maverick

Meta AI

Llama 4 Maverick, released by Meta on April 5, 2025, is a natively multimodal Mixture-of-Experts large language model with 400 billion total parameters and 17 billion active parameters per inference. It features a 1M token context window and supports text and image input, enabling strong performance on both language and vision tasks. Maverick targets open-source deployments requiring large-scale multimodal reasoning, released under Meta's custom license.
