Where Nemotron 3.5 Super VL sits on price
At $0.5 per million output tokens, Nemotron 3.5 Super VL is a mid tier model — 4.3× cheaper than the median output price of $2.16, which puts it cheaper than 81% and pricier than 19% of the models we track. It sits 5th cheapest of the 7 NVIDIA models we track. Output costs 3.3× input, the usual spread — trim both, starting with the answer length.
Cached input is 87% cheaper. On an input-heavy workload you need roughly a 29% cache-hit rate to take 25% off the input line — reachable for chatbots and agents that resend the same system prompt and history.
What real workloads cost on Nemotron 3.5 Super VL
These three workloads are the ones teams actually run on a mid-priced model — a $0.5/1M model is not bought for the same job as one ten times the price.
| Workload | Per request | Per month |
|---|---|---|
| Support chatbot — 500 conversations/day (5K in / 1.4K out) Conversation history re-sent each turn — the classic prompt-caching win. | $0.0014 | $21.75 |
| Document pipeline — 10K docs/day (3K in / 500 out) Batch-friendly: no user waiting, so a ~50% batch discount usually applies. | $0.0007 | $210 |
| Long-context analysis — 200 runs/day (250K in / 4K out) Only possible on large-context models; input cost is nearly the whole bill. | $0.0395 | $237 |

Frequently asked questions
› How much does the Nemotron 3.5 Super VL API cost?
Nemotron 3.5 Super VL costs $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.5 per million output tokens, with cached input at $0.02 per million (87% cheaper). That works out to roughly 2,000,000 output tokens per dollar.
› What does the support chatbot workload cost on Nemotron 3.5 Super VL?
Support chatbot — 500 conversations/day (5K in / 1.4K out) costs about $0.0014 per request and $21.75 per month on Nemotron 3.5 Super VL. Conversation history re-sent each turn — the classic prompt-caching win.
› What does it cost to fill Nemotron 3.5 Super VL's 1M context window?
Sending 1M of input in a single request costs $0.1573 at $0.15 per million tokens — before any output. With prompt caching that same fill drops to about $0.021 on repeat requests. This is why large context windows are cheap to advertise and expensive to actually use.
› Is Nemotron 3.5 Super VL worth the price?
Nemotron 3.5 Super VL sits in the middle of the market (5 of 7 by price within NVIDIA). The honest test is a routing experiment: send the same 200 real requests to this model and to a tier below, and compare failure rate against the price gap — most teams find a majority of traffic never needed the pricier model.
