## Summary

NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra is now available on Ollama's cloud, a 550B parameter (55B active) open model designed for long-running agentic workflows such as coding agents, deep research, and enterprise automation across hundreds of tool calls. It supports a 1M token context window and uses NVIDIA's NVFP4 4-bit format for memory efficiency and speed. Benchmarks show it leading open models in agent productivity, instruction following, and long-context tasks while cutting costs by up to 30%. It can be run via Claude Code, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, or general chat using simple Ollama CLI commands.

## Questions this post answers

### What is NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Ultra and what is it optimized for?

Nemotron 3 Ultra is a 550 billion parameter open model from NVIDIA with 55 billion active parameters per token, built for long-running agentic workflows like coding agents, deep research, and enterprise automation spanning hundreds of tool calls. It supports a 1 million token context window and uses NVIDIA's NVFP4 4-bit floating point format for memory efficiency and speed, and is available on Ollama's cloud.

_Developers evaluating open agentic models can track new releases like this one on daily.dev._

### How do I run Nemotron 3 Ultra with Claude Code using Ollama?

After downloading Ollama, launch Claude Code with the model using the command 'ollama launch claude --model nemotron-3-ultra:cloud'. Similar launch commands exist for Hermes Agent ('ollama launch hermes') and OpenClaw ('ollama launch openclaw'), or you can run general chat directly with 'ollama run nemotron-3-ultra:cloud'.

_Developers wiring new open models into their coding agents can find setup details like this on daily.dev._

### How does Nemotron 3 Ultra compare to other open models on cost and performance?

Nemotron 3 Ultra leads other open models on accuracy across agent productivity, instruction following, and long-context benchmarks while also delivering leading throughput, saving up to 30% on costs compared to other leading open models. It sits in the most favorable quadrant combining high accuracy with high throughput among open models tested.

_Teams comparing open model costs and throughput can follow benchmarks like these on daily.dev._
