Are any of these open source?
Llama 3.3 Nemotron Super 49B v1.5 and GLM-4.5-Air publishes its weights and can be self-hosted; Solar Pro 2 is proprietary.
Which is newer?
GLM-4.5-Air is the newest, released Jul 28, 2025. Llama 3.3 Nemotron Super 49B v1.5 came out Jul 25, 2025; Solar Pro 2 came out May 20, 2025. Knowledge cutoff: Solar Pro 2 Mar 2025, GLM-4.5-Air Apr 2025.
How do you decide the winner?
Each model gets a 0–100 score on capability (50%, independent benchmark results); price (25%, blended price per million tokens (3 input : 1 output), log scale); inputs & features (15%, image, PDF, audio and video input, tool calling, structured output and reasoning); context window (10%, maximum tokens per request, log scale). Dimensions missing for any model are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so every model is judged on the same evidence. Specs and prices come from public model listings and the labs’ own API pages; capability scores come from independent benchmark runs. Data updated Nov 2, 2026.
