By Nousresearch
Released: 2024-08-18
Nousresearch Hermes 3 Llama 3 1 70B, developed by Nous Research, features 70B parameters and 66k-token context window. Hermes 3 is a generalist language model with many improvements over [Hermes 2](/models/nousresearch/nous-hermes-2-mistral-7b-dpo), including advanced agentic capabilities, much better roleplaying, reasoning, multi-turn conversation, long context coherence, and improvements across the board. Hermes 3 70B is a competitive, if not superior finetune of the [Llama-3.1 70B foundation model](/models/meta-llama/llama-3.1-70b-instruct), focused on aligning LLMs to the user, with powerful steering capabilities and control given to the end user. The Hermes 3 series builds and expands on the Hermes 2 set of capabilities, including more powerful and reliable function calling and structured output capabilities, generalist assistant capabilities, and improved code generation skills. Available at $0.3/1M tokens.

Claude Opus 4.8
Claude Opus 4.8 is Anthropic's June 2026 flagship model, succeeding Opus 4.7. It posts a headline score of 81 on the hardest agentic coding and reasoning suites, holds long-horizon tool-use plans together across far more steps, and is notably more candid about its own uncertainty - refusing to fabricate rather than confidently pressing on. It is the default choice for serious agentic and software-engineering workloads.
Anthropic Mythos 1
Mythos 1 is the full release of Anthropic's specialised, security-focused system, graduating from the guarded Claude Mythos Preview. Built around Project Glasswing, it pairs frontier reasoning with defensive security tooling - vulnerability analysis, triage and incident response - deployed with heavy oversight and auditability. It runs alongside the general-purpose Claude family rather than replacing it.
