}'What is Llama 3.2 1B Instruct good for?
Meta Llama publishes this model; we expose it under the id "meta-llama/
This one handles text only. If you need function calling or image understanding, pick another model from the same catalogue — swapping is a one-line change.
For a back-of-envelope figure: about 103 toman per 1,000-word exchange (9,348 in, 69,590 out, per 1M tokens). You are always charged for the usage the request actually reported, never for the estimate, and a failed request costs nothing.
The closest alternative with the same capabilities from a different provider is Reka Flash 3: Llama 3.2 1B Instruct works out about 23% cheaper, and its context window is smaller. Both run on the same key and the same code, so trying the other one is a single string change.
To make the figure concrete: 100,000 toman of credit buys roughly 971 thousand-word requests on Llama 3.2 1B Instruct, and every 1,000 toman is about 9,709 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 78,938 toman in total. Filling this model's 60,000-token window costs 561 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.
Its nearest relative in the catalogue is "meta-llama/
Meta Llama has 8 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Llama 3.1 8B Instruct at 59 toman per thousand words and the dearest Llama 3.1 70B Instruct at 648. Among the less common parameters it accepts logit_bias, min_p, presence_penalty, repetition_penalty, top_k — all through the standard request body. It does not support include_reasoning, reasoning, response_format, tool_choice, which most models here do, so test before switching if your code relies on them. By context size the nearest option from another provider is Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image Preview) at 65,536 tokens.
What to use it for: high-volume work such as classification, tagging and bulk summarising.
Llama 3.2 1B is a 1-billion-parameter language model focused on efficiently performing natural language tasks, such as summarization, dialogue, and multilingual text analysis. Its smaller size allows it to operate...
