Who hosts Nemotron 3.5 ASR Streaming?
Nemotron 3.5 ASR Streaming is created by NVIDIA and served by Together AI. Coval measures each hosted endpoint separately.
Limits of this comparison
Coval measures it through Together, so accuracy describes the selected weights while latency also reflects Together's serving path.
- Different runtimes, accelerators, batching policies or regions can materially change latency for the same open-weight model.
Official sources
Results are re-measured daily using fixed datasets and reported over a rolling 30-day window. Same datasets, prompts and metric definitions for every model, measured by Coval’s open-source runner. Full methodology on the overview.
