About NVIDIA Alpamayo
NVIDIA Alpamayo is an open ecosystem of AI models, simulation tools, and datasets designed to accelerate the development of autonomous vehicles with human-like reasoning capabilities. It is built around a family of Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models that combine visual perception, language-based reasoning, and action planning, enabling vehicles to interpret complex driving environments and make decisions step by step. Unlike traditional systems that rely mainly on pattern recognition, Alpamayo introduces chain-of-thought reasoning, allowing autonomous systems to understand rare or unpredictable “long-tail” scenarios and explain their decisions for improved safety and transparency. It integrates seamlessly with NVIDIA’s full autonomous driving stack, covering training, simulation, and deployment, so developers can build advanced systems without creating core infrastructure from scratch.

Nemotron 3.5 Super VL
NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Super VL is an open, customizable multimodal AI model designed for complex reasoning, autonomous agents, and enterprise workflows. The model uses a 120-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts architecture that activates approximately 12 billion parameters per token to balance computational efficiency with model capabilities. It combines text, image, document, and video understanding with instruction following, coding, and external tool use. Its multimodal capabilities support document analysis, chart interpretation, optical character recognition, video understanding, and automated information extraction. Developers can customize the model through supervised fine-tuning, low-rank adaptation, and reinforcement learning using NVIDIA NeMo. Nemotron 3.5 Super VL supports deployment in local, cloud, and data center environments for applications such as software engineering, financial document processing, cybersecurity analysis, and enterprise automation.

NVIDIA Alpamayo 2 Super
NVIDIA Alpamayo 2 Super is a frontier open model for robotaxis and autonomous vehicles, built to reason through rare, complex driving situations and produce decisions developers can inspect, validate, and trust. Based on NVIDIA Cosmos 3 Super Reasoner and post-trained with reinforcement learning, it combines commercial openness with multitask capabilities for autonomous driving. The model reasons across full-surround camera coverage, fusing front, side, and rear views to understand lane changes, merges, unprotected turns, and complex intersections. For each scenario, it can generate a planned vehicle trajectory, a chain-of-causation trace explaining the decision, a meta-action such as yielding or stopping, reasoning auto-labels for training and validation, and visual question-answering responses grounded in specific image regions. These linked outputs make it easier to connect what the model observed with the action it selected.

Nemotron 3 Ultra
Nemotron 3 Nano is a compact, open large language model in NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3 family, designed for efficient agentic reasoning, conversational AI, and coding tasks. It uses a hybrid Mixture-of-Experts Mamba-Transformer architecture that activates only a small subset of parameters per token, enabling low-latency inference while maintaining strong accuracy and reasoning performance. It has approximately 31.6 billion total parameters with around 3.2 billion active (3.6 billion including embeddings), allowing it to achieve higher accuracy than previous Nemotron 2 Nano while using less computation per forward pass. Nemotron 3 Nano supports long-context processing of up to one million tokens, enabling it to handle large documents, multi-step workflows, and extended reasoning chains in a single pass. It is designed for high-throughput, real-time execution, excelling in multi-turn conversations, tool calling, and agent-based workflows where tasks require planning, reasoning, and more.
