Cosmos3-Super is an open-weights video model from NVIDIA, released May 2026. Its published size is 64B parameters. Licence: openmdw-1.1.

Catalogue identity notes

The mid-trained Cosmos 3 Super omnimodel checkpoint (nvidia/Cosmos3-Super, pinned f543c56), catalogued as a video model like cosmos3-nano. The Cosmos 3 report (arXiv 2606.02800v4) lists 'Cosmos3-Super huggingface.co/nvidia/Cosmos3-Super' among its open-weight checkpoints and says the post-trained Cosmos3-Super-Text2Image and Cosmos3-Super-Image2Video were produced from this mid-trained checkpoint; Table 1 stars (∗) only post-trained variants, and the Text2Video 80.0 / Image2Video 82.8 cells for Cosmos3-Super are unstarred, so Tables 12 and 14 rows 'Cosmos3-Super' are this checkpoint, not the separate Cosmos3-Super-Image2Video repo (not proposed: no scored rows). Repo last modified 2026-09-16; weights may have been refreshed after the v4 report. Distinct from the catalogued cosmos3-super-text2image.

$ how the score was worked out · Cosmos 3: Omnimodal World Mod… 92%

Each result implies a score on its own, after adjusting for how hard its test is and who ran it. The score is their weighted average, with a small pull toward the middle for thinly tested models. Each test's weight is its counts column above; here it's added up by who ran the tests. How it works
