Hermes 3 70B Instruct example: JSON output against a schema

The example is picked from this model's own capabilities. Drop in your key and it runs as is.

from openai import OpenAI

    "name": "ticket",

What is Hermes 3 70B Instruct good for?

Hermes 3 70B Instruct is one of Nous Research's models. Put "nousresearch/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b" in the model field and the rest of your code stays as it is. Hermes 3 70B Instruct keeps 131,072 tokens in view at once, and that number is what caps the conversation history in your product. A single response can run to 16,384 tokens. On price it sits in the "cheap" band — cheaper than 112 and dearer than 294 of the other paid models in the catalogue.

What you get on top of text in, text out: it returns schema-valid JSON through response_format, ready to hand to your code. All of it works through the standard parameters of the official OpenAI SDK — no custom client, no wrapper.

Input runs at 203,088 toman per 1M tokens and output at 203,088 — output costs 1× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. 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 Gemma 2 27B: Hermes 3 70B Instruct works out roughly 1.1× more expensive, and its context window is larger. 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 189 thousand-word requests on Hermes 3 70B Instruct, and every 1,000 toman is about 1,894 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 406,175 toman in total. Filling this model's 131,072-token window costs 26,619 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.

Its nearest relative in the catalogue is "nousresearch/hermes-3-llama-3.1-405b", and choosing between those two is where most people hesitate. On a thousand-word request this variant works out 1.4× cheaper (528 against 754 toman).

Nous Research has 4 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Hermes 4 70B at 200 toman per thousand words and the dearest Hermes 4 405B at 1,509. Among the less common parameters it accepts logit_bias, min_p, repetition_penalty, top_k — all through the standard request body. It does not support include_reasoning, reasoning, tool_choice, tools, 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 Aion-2.0 at 131,072 tokens.

Where it makes sense: high-volume work such as classification, tagging and bulk summarising, extracting data against a fixed schema.
