Llama 4 Scout

Llama 4 Scout by meta is offered by 4 providers on this page. Its reference price is $0.085 per 1M input tokens and $0.46 per 1M output tokens. The lowest paid channel is Helicone at $0.08 / $0.30 per 1M, about 1.3× below the reference price. That channel is a third-party gateway, so confirm its availability and rate limits before depending on it.

Artificial Analysis rates it 10.3 on the Intelligence Index, with 8.2 for coding and 1.1 for agentic tasks. Against its lowest blended price of $0.135 per 1M, that is roughly 76 index points per dollar, which is the value ratio the leaderboards rank on. Median output speed is 132 tokens per second, with 0.8s to the first token. Running one task of the Artificial Analysis suite costs about $0.0106, which reflects how many tokens its reasoning consumes rather than the unit price alone.

The context window is 328,000 tokens at the reference host, but hosts report different limits, from 131,072 to 1,310,720, so the usable window depends on the provider you pick. It supports tool use and structured output. Accepted input modalities are Text and Image. The weights are open, so it can also be self-hosted or served through a gateway of your choice. Providers report the capability flags inconsistently, so verify a specific feature against the host you plan to use. Its training knowledge cuts off at 2024-08-31.
