Llama 3.3 70B Instruct
The Meta Llama 3.3 multilingual large language model (LLM) is a pretrained and instruction tuned generative model in 70B (text in/text out). The Llama 3.3 instruction tuned text only model is optimized for multilingual dialogue use cases and outperforms many of the available open source and closed chat models on common industry benchmarks. Supported languages: English, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Hindi, Spanish, and Thai. [Model Card](https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-models/blob/main/models/llama3_3/MODEL_CARD.md)

- Prompt retention
- Unknown — we could not confirm
- Training
- Not used for training
"Unknown" does not mean "safe". It means we could not confirm it.
Whether a provider trains on prompts is a declared value from our terms with them. Retention is determined from the upstream listing for every host this model can reach. Neither is guessed.
Measured performance
Measured through FastMetal's own gateway over the last 30 days (648 first-response samples).
Throughput is sampled once a day: the median of 26 observations over the last 30 days.
Time to first response is measured to the first streamed chunk; throughput counts all output tokens, including reasoning tokens. These are observations, not a performance guarantee.
