Designed to operate on a single Nvidia H100 GPU, Scout offers a 10-million-token context window and outperforms competitors like Google’s Gemma 3

Comparable to OpenAI’s GPT-4o, Maverick excels in coding and reasoning tasks while utilizing fewer active parameters

[{"selector":"#anim-ba0723fc-640e-494f-8718-583c8d29831a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-32.77343743302168%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e20b0bb1-e94a-43d9-b4c4-0fe6b4ddf3fe","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-278d9dd7-4056-4b7f-9d3f-2d819260e76b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -409.5425%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Both models employ a "mixture of experts" (MoE) design, optimizing resource use by activating only necessary components for specific tasks

[{"selector":"#anim-cf2ffe13-ac6a-4702-b10e-d74ce884374e [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-33.92857133105062%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-9532188b-ca70-4c0e-82ac-02fd947e8867","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b0c85704-bb80-4a4c-99d7-c69c72ac07c7","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -409.5425%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Llama 4 models are integrated into Meta’s AI assistant, enhancing services on WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, and the web

[{"selector":"#anim-2c141042-f2ac-438f-83de-fc780187a102 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-20.239968916054234%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-80fe0a75-9df8-42ba-851f-0ba53ada6a4c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-dc5eabbb-47f6-45aa-a483-9489c8887007","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -409.5425%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

While marketed as open-source, usage restrictions apply, particularly for commercial entities with over 700 million users
