LongCat 2.0 vs Nemotron 3 Super
LongCat 2.0 leads Nemotron 3 Super on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, 19.1 to 12.8, and Nemotron 3 Super costs 2.7x less per output token ($0.45 vs $1.20 per million). Updated October 23, 2026; 8 benchmarks have a result for both.
LongCat 2.0 or Nemotron 3 Super: which to pick
Neither model has a coding score yet, so the two cannot be ranked on coding.
Pick LongCat 2.0 for a larger context window (1.05M against 262K tokens) and work measured by GPQA Diamond (Artificial Analysis run) or Long context reasoning (AA-LCR), where it leads.

Three fixed token mixes at each model's listed price, so per-token rates become a bill.
Chat turn
1K input + 500 output tokens
Nemotron 3 Super costs less
Repository review
