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.

Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B
Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B is Alibaba's open-weight release of its Qwen3.8 Max flagship, a sparse mixture-of-experts model with 2.4 trillion total parameters and 95 billion active per token, routed across 512 experts. It uses a hybrid attention design (Gated DeltaNet and Gated Attention layers) across 92 layers, with a native 262K context window and thinking mode enabled for every response. Alibaba reports 93.0 on PaperBench (ahead of GPT-5.6 Sol's 90.5), 92.6 on GPQA Diamond, 86.6 on Terminal-Bench 2.1, and 67.7 on SWE-bench Pro, positioning it for coding, research, and long-horizon agentic work. It gives developers access to Qwen-Max-class capability under open weights, useful for teams that want frontier-level coding and agentic performance without a closed API.
ChatQwen3.8 Max
Qwen3.8 Max is Alibaba's flagship large language model, released August 3, 2026 as the most capable model in the Qwen family to date. It uses a mixture-of-experts architecture with 2.4 trillion total parameters and about 95 billion active per request, and accepts text, image, and video input with a context window of up to 1 million tokens. Alibaba positions it for coding and long-horizon agentic work: in testing the model ran autonomously for over 10 days building a self-evolving software harness. Reported benchmarks include 93.0 on PaperBench, 82.8 on IFBench, 86.6 on Terminal-Bench 2.1, and 86.1 on OSWorld-Verified, ahead of Claude Opus 4.8 on several coding and agent tasks and roughly matching Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol, though it trails both on some evaluations. On the Arena.AI leaderboard it ranks as the top Chinese model for text tasks. Alibaba plans to open-source the weights on Hugging Face and ModelScope.
ChatQwen3.7 Flash
Qwen3.7 Flash is the low-cost, fast tier of Alibaba's Qwen3.7 family, released in July 2026. It is a vision-language model that accepts text, image, and video input across a 1 million-token context window, with reasoning enabled by default and a 262K-token thinking budget. Alibaba positions it as an upgrade over Qwen3.6 Flash in multimodal understanding and agent execution, with better object recognition and spatial intelligence. It supports function calling and structured outputs. Pricing is tiered by prompt length. Requests under 32K input tokens cost $0.03/$0.13 per million, rising to $0.20/$0.80 above 256K. Alibaba published no benchmarks at launch. An independent vision evaluation by Roboflow measured strong object identification (84.4%) but weak OCR and object detection, so it fits high-volume multimodal tasks (classification, visual agents, lightweight extraction) better than document-heavy pipelines.
