Venice AI listed Qwen 3.8 2.4T and NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B in its public model catalog on 2026-08-12, a reading DRM3's instrument recorded[^1][^2].

The Qwen 3.8 2.4T entry specifies a 262,144-token context window and pricing of $2.50 per million tokens for input and $7.50 per million tokens for output[^1]. The Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B listing shows a 1,000,000-token context window and pricing of $0.10 per million tokens for input and $0.25 per million tokens for output[^2].

By this paper's arithmetic, the Nemotron model is 75 times cheaper to input than the Qwen model on a per-million-token basis, while offering a context window roughly four times larger[^1][^2].
