Google’s Gemini 3.7 Flash targets coding and agents with a 50% introductory price cut

Google is rolling out Gemini 3.7 Flash, a new version of its workhorse AI model that puts coding, agentic workflows and knowledge work at the center of the upgrade — while temporarily cutting API prices in half. The release arrives just three weeks after the release of Gemini 3.6 Flash, an unusually short turnaround that Google attributes to developer feedback and algorithmic improvements. For enterprise developers, the more consequential story may be the combination of those intelligence gains ...

Meet the New Claude Opus 5: Frontier-Class Agentic Coding and Computer Use at Unchanged Opus Pricing

Today, Anthropic released Claude Opus 5. It replaces Claude Opus 4.8 as the Opus-tier flagship. Pricing is unchanged at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. The Anthropic team positions Opus 5 as approaching the intelligence of Claude Fable 5 at half the price. It is now the default model on The post Meet the New Claude Opus 5: Frontier-Class Agentic Coding and Computer Use at Unchanged Opus Pricing appeared first on MarkTechPost.

Brex assumes its AI agents could do anything — so it watches the network, not the code

Brex CEO Pedro Franceschi offered a blueprint for one of the pressing challenges facing the enterprise today at VB Transform 2026: securely deploying AI agents, like the open-source OpenClaw, into production environments. Unlocking this enterprise value requires a mindset shift. The industry needs to move past vague terminology and focus on concrete enterprise roles. “People talk a lot about agents, but I think 'agents' is a terrible name. It's this Silicon Valley concept that doesn't really mea...

TrueFoundry's open source AI agent harness TrueForge boasts 30%-75% cheaper task completion than Claude Managed Agents

Another day, another new AI agent harness is released. Only this time, it's one that aims to solve a growing enterprise problem as AI agents proliferate: enabling greater developer control of agents and tools, while reducing cost. TrueFoundry, a San Francisco B2B machine learning startup co-founded in 2021 by former Meta and Google engineers, has released its own custom TrueForge harness under the permissive MIT License on Github. Thus, it can be used with any of a developer (or their parent ent...

Meta returns to open source with Muse Glimmer, an Apache 2.0 licensed 30B parameter AI model optimized for agents — available now

Meta today released Muse Glimmer, a 30-billion-parameter open-weight model designed to run autonomous AI agents directly on consumer hardware — pushing agentic workloads that normally depend on cloud infrastructure onto high-end Macs and PCs. Just as notable as what the model does is how it's licensed. Glimmer arrives under the permissive, industry-standard Apache 2.0 open source license — the company's first fully open release since it succeeded its open-weight Llama family in April with the pr...

Nvidia's Switchyard router reshuffles AI models mid-task, cutting task costs to a third in its own tests

Enterprises running always-on AI agents keep hitting the same tradeoff. Send every task to a frontier model and the bill climbs fast. Build custom routing logic to send easy tasks to cheaper models and that becomes its own engineering project, one that has to be maintained every time a workflow changes. Nvidia is proposing a fix that touches both ends of that problem at once. The company is out on Tuesday with Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, a 30-billion-parameter open mixture-of-experts model built for...

Looped Language Models Improve Compositional Tool Calling

A new study highlights 'loop-based language models' as a breakthrough in AI's ability to use multiple tools in sequence. This advancement helps AI handle complex, multi-stage tasks more accurately, moving us closer to sophisticated AI agent systems that can plan and execute projects like humans do. While not immediately actionable, it's a key development for future AI applications in business.
