Nemotron 3.5 Content Safety (free) example: reading an image into JSON
The example is picked from this model's own capabilities. Drop in your key and it runs as is.

NVIDIA publishes this model; we expose it under the id "nvidia/nemotron-3.5-content-safety:free". Its context window is 128,000 tokens, roughly 96k English words in one request. A single response can run to 8,192 tokens. It is free: nothing leaves your wallet. The capacity is shared across all users and there is a daily cap per account, so treat it as a testing lane rather than a production dependency.
Capabilities available on this id: it reads images directly, which makes it a real option for invoices, forms and screenshots; it has a reasoning mode that pays off on multi-step problems, maths and debugging. All of it works through the standard parameters of the official OpenAI SDK — no custom client, no wrapper. Keep in mind that reasoning tokens are output tokens and do appear on the bill.
For a back-of-envelope figure: about 0 toman per 1,000-word exchange (0 in, 0 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 Lyria 3 Clip Preview, 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.
This id gets confused with "nvidia/nemotron-3.5-content-safety", because the underlying model is the same. The difference is the suffix: "free" against the standard variant. The context windows differ too: 128,000 against 131,072 tokens. Maximum answer length differs as well: 8,192 against 117,964 tokens. On parameters the other takes frequency_penalty, logit_bias, min_p, presence_penalty.
NVIDIA has 10 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is Nemotron 3 Nano 30B A3B at 94 toman per thousand words and the dearest Nemotron 3 Ultra at 1,414. It does not support response_format, tool_choice, tools, structured_outputs, 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 Nova Micro 1.0 at 128,000 tokens.
What to use it for: proving an idea works before you spend anything, logic puzzles and code review, pulling text and fields out of images.
NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Content Safety is a compact 4B-parameter multimodal guardrail model from NVIDIA, fine-tuned from Google Gemma-3-4B. It moderates both inputs to and responses from LLMs and VLMs, accepting...
