# Llama 4 Maverick API model profile

Llama 4 Maverick is a Meta model profile with a 1,048,576-token context window. The dated catalog snapshot records text, image modalities and interfaces for reasoning, structured output, text generation, tool calling, tools.

Llama 4 Maverick is available under the Kendr alias kc-llama-4-maverick. Current account availability and customer credit quotes come from Kendr's live public model API and applicable account policy.

Llama 4 Maverick accepts text and image and returns text. The snapshot records reasoning, structured output, text generation, tool calling, tools, vision, and web search as capabilities or interfaces.

The dated reference snapshot lists $0.2 input and $0.696 output per million tokens. The separately published provider-route reference is $0.24 / $0.97.

The 2026-08-12 snapshot includes 3 Artificial Analysis indexes and 6 Design Arena categories. Publisher-reported launch results are labeled and are not presented as Kendr measurements; scores from different suites are not treated as interchangeable.

No comparable popularity rank or traffic share is present in the 2026-08-12 snapshot. No comparable routing rank or traffic-share observation is attached to this dated profile; missing adoption evidence is not estimated.

Profile data was reviewed for the 2026-08-12 snapshot. Claims retain their source dates, and unavailable fields are shown as unavailable instead of estimated.
