Kimi K3
Qwen3.8 2.4t A95BKimi K3 is Kimi’s flagship model for long-horizon coding and end-to-end knowledge work, with a 1M-token context window and industry-leading intelligence.
Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B is Alibaba’s most powerful Qwen model to date. It is a 2.4‑trillion‑parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with approximately 95 billion active parameters. It is built for autonomous, long‑duration tasks: multi‑day code runs, reproducing research papers, and self‑improvement.
Prices are per million tokens. Time to First Token and throughput are rolling averages measured on AIHubMix.
Promotional prices show the discounted rate; see each model page for promotion windows.
Daily traffic served through AIHubMix — how demand for each model is trending.
Measured on real AIHubMix traffic, hourly buckets. Gaps mean no traffic in that hour.
Estimate your monthly bill for the same workload on each model.
Monthly = daily × 30. Discounted rates applied where a promotion is active.
