Switchyard is a language model from NVIDIA. It does not hold a position on ModelCap's current board yet; it is placed automatically once its model card or a public benchmark compares it with ranked models. It reads up to 1M tokens of context, with no downloadable weights linked in the current source data.

No provider is currently serving this model.
BES normalizes admitted public benchmark evidence for measured Index rows. Its legacy score and observables prior do not define the public language rank.
These adoption and deployment observations remain context only. They do not change this model's ModelCap Index score or rank.
The bounded 0–100 capability score blends each source’s competitive placement with its published achievement, then combines capability families. Evidence breadth adds a modest uncertainty adjustment; price and popularity are not part of benchmark-led rank.

Not yet published: a pinned repository revision, the architecture and model type, a parameter count, safetensors weight metadata, the base model it derives from, a declared licence, a link to the licence terms, a current serving provider, measured provider uptime, published provider pricing, admitted benchmark results, results across several capability areas, results from more than one source, a confident match to its benchmark entries, pinned evaluation dataset versions.
A metadata completeness and deployability index—not a safety certification, quality grade, or production-readiness claim.
Market Gravity uses OpenRouter’s full-catalogue popularity order. Sparse Vercel top-ten observations appear only when published and do not affect the score.
This model is visible because it is available in the live catalogue, but it has no trustworthy community result yet. ModelCap does not infer a quality score from price, features, or market activity.

Switchyard has no public ModelCap Index position as of 6 November 2026: the snapshot lacks enough matched benchmark evidence, or the identity match is unresolved. Its catalogue facts (price, context, providers) are shown without a rank.
No live API price is listed for Switchyard in the current snapshot as of 6 November 2026 because no serving endpoint is published. ModelCap shows a price only when a provider currently lists one.
Switchyard has a published context window of 1M tokens (1,000,000). Its catalogue-declared route output cap is unknown. OpenRouter catalogue or provider-endpoint declaration. Limits can vary by provider and prompt length; a model-wide maximum has not been independently verified. The providers table lists each endpoint's context limit.
No linked weights. No downloadable model weights are linked in the current source data. This does not identify every API or chat product that offers the model.
Switchyard first appeared in the catalogue on 21 Sept 2026. It is the current version in its family. Rank and price movements since then are recorded on the site's changes feed.
