What changed
Sakana AI has released Fugu Max and Fugu Ultra v2, two models built on the same system for coordinating multiple AI models. Fugu Max sends tasks to smaller, specialized open models, including NVIDIA Nemotron, while Fugu Ultra v2 is aimed at higher capability and reported scores of 48.3 on Chartography and 74.3 on DeepSWE.
What this means for you
Fugu Max is priced at $2 per million units of text processed for input and $6 for output, offering a potentially lower-cost way to handle complex tasks with several AI models. The release is available now, but the supplied information does not specify access details or explain what the reported scores mean in everyday use.
