Llama 4 Live Day-Zero on Groq at Lowest Cost

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., April 5, 2025 -- Groq, the pioneer in AI inference, has launched Meta's Llama 4 Scout and Maverick models, now live on GroqCloud™. Developers and enterprises get day-zero access to the most advanced open-source AI models available.

Meta's Llama 4 Scout and Maverick models are live today on GroqCloud, giving developers and enterprises day-zero access.

That speed is possible because Groq controls the full stack—from our custom-built LPU to our vertically integrated cloud. The result: models go live with no delay, no tuning, and no bottlenecks—and run at the lowest cost per token in the industry, with full performance.

"We built Groq to drive the cost of compute to zero," said Jonathan Ross, CEO and Founder of Groq. "Our chips are designed for inference, which means developers can run models like Llama 4 faster, cheaper, and without compromise."

Lowest Cost Per Token — Without Compromise

With Llama 4 models live, developers can run cutting-edge multimodal workloads while keeping costs low and latency predictable.

  • Llama 4 Scout: $0.11 / M input tokens and $0.34 / M output tokens, at a blended rate of $0.13
  • Llama 4 Maverick: $0.50 / M input tokens and $0.77 / M output tokens, at a blended rate of $0.53
