Rows open both models in the calculator — adjust volume and token counts there.
Llama 3.3 70B
Mature, well-supported open-weight model for general chat and lightweight agents — wide availability across inference providers keeps pricing competitive.
Falls behind newer flagship models on complex reasoning and coding — best suited to well-scoped, repetitive tasks.
Llama 4 Maverick
Strong multi-modal (text + image) open-weight model with a 1M-token context window — good for self-hosted or fine-tuned deployments.
Smaller completion-token cap (16K) than newer commercial models limits very long single-turn outputs — chunk long generations.
