Llama 4 Maverick vs Llama-3.3 Nemotron Super 49B

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.

Llama-3.3 Nemotron Super 49B

NVIDIA

Llama-3.3-Nemotron-Super-49B-v1 is a 49-billion-parameter model from NVIDIA, fine-tuned from Meta's Llama 3.3 using NVIDIA's Nemotron post-training pipeline that combines supervised fine-tuning with reinforcement learning to enhance reasoning, instruction alignment, and complex problem-solving. The Super tier in the Nemotron family represents a mid-range capability level — positioned above the Nano series and below the Ultra 253B flagship — offering a balance between high-quality outputs and manageable inference infrastructure requirements. Released open-weight on HuggingFace with NVIDIA NIM support, it targets teams with multi-GPU setups who need strong reasoning capability without the scale of the Ultra model.
