Overview

NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super (120B MoE with 12 active experts) is NVIDIA's flagship reasoning model, available free through Kilo Code's OpenAI-compatible API gateway. With 262K context and strong reasoning performance, it is well-suited for complex analytical tasks, multi-step problem-solving, and technical writing. The 32K output cap provides room for detailed responses. As a gateway proxy through Kilo Code, rate limits depend on upstream availability rather than a published quota.
