qwen/qwen3-coder-next
Model Card
Qwen3-Coder-Next is an open-weight coding model from Alibaba's Qwen team with 80B total parameters but only 3B active per token, designed specifically for coding agents and local development with a 256K context window. It uses a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with hybrid attention, trained on 800K executable coding tasks using reinforcement learning to excel at long-horizon reasoning, tool calling, and recovering from execution failures. It achieves performance comparable to models with 10-20x more active parameters on benchmarks like SWE-Bench while maintaining low inference costs.

More AI Models From Qwen
Qwen3.5-9B
Qwen 3.5 9B is a 9-billion parameter open-source multimodal model by Alibaba's Qwen Team, featuring a 262K native context window (extendable to ~1M tokens), support for text, image, and video input, and coverage of 201 languages. It uses a hybrid Gated DeltaNet architecture and outperforms much larger models like Qwen3-30B and OpenAI's gpt-oss-120B on key benchmarks including reasoning, vision, and document understanding.
ChatQwen3.5-122B-A10B
Qwen 3.5 122B (10B Active) is Alibaba's largest medium-sized MoE model, activating only 10B of its 122B total parameters per inference pass. It excels at agentic tasks like tool use and multi-step reasoning, leading the Qwen 3.5 lineup on benchmarks such as BFCL-V4 and BrowseComp. It supports 262K native context (extendable to 1M), native multimodal input, and 201 languages under Apache 2.0.
ChatQwen3.5-27B
Qwen 3.5 27B is the only dense (non-MoE) model in the Qwen 3.5 medium series, activating all 27B parameters on every forward pass for maximum per-token reasoning density. It ties GPT-5 mini on SWE-bench Verified at 72.4 and is competitive with Claude Sonnet 4.5 on visual reasoning benchmarks. It runs well on consumer hardware and is open-weight under Apache 2.0.
