Long-running agents spend most of their time executing: calling tools, validating results and delegating work.
Nemotron 3.5 Lightning is built for this high-volume execution, at a size that can run anywhere from an NVIDIA DGX Spark to the data center.
See it running agentic workflows on DGX Spark and read the technical breakdown: nvda.ws/4heK23m

Not every step in an agent workflow needs the same model.
That’s why we’re also releasing NVIDIA NeMo Switchyard, a new open source library for model routing.
Use frontier models for complex reasoning and planning, and Lightning for high-volume, specialized execution.
