Model Card
Qwen 3.5 Flash is the fast, low-cost tier of the Qwen 3.5 family from Alibaba's Qwen team, served as the hosted API version of the Qwen3.5-35B-A3B model. It uses a hybrid architecture that pairs linear attention with sparse mixture-of-experts routing, which keeps compute close to linear across its 1M token context window.
The model supports tool and function calling and accepts image input alongside text, with output up to 64K tokens per request. At $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.40 per million output tokens, it is priced for high-volume work such as classification, extraction, and lightweight agent loops where cost and context length matter more than peak reasoning. Qwen has not published benchmark scores for the Flash tier specifically.
This rolling route tracks the latest snapshot; the dated 02-23 snapshot is listed separately.

Qwen3.7 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.
ChatQwen3.7 Plus
Qwen3.7 Plus is Alibaba's multimodal agent model, released in June 2026, combining vision-language understanding with full agentic capabilities across a 1 million-token context window. Unlike the text-only Qwen3.7 Max, Plus ingests images and video alongside text, processed through early-fusion training so vision and language are jointly understood from the first layer. This enables GUI grounding — the model can interpret screenshots and issue precise on-screen actions — scoring 79.0 on ScreenSpot Pro, placing it alongside Claude Computer Use and OpenAI Operator in the GUI automation tier. Beyond vision, it adds deep reasoning, self-programming, tool invocation, and autonomous iteration: the model writes and tests code, calls external APIs, and loops until the task is done. On the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index it scores 53. Choose it over Qwen3.7 Max when your workflow requires image or video inputs, browser/desktop automation, or end-to-end agentic pipelines that combine seeing, reasoning, and doing.
ChatQwen3.7 Max
Qwen3.7 Max is Alibaba's flagship proprietary reasoning model, released in May 2026, built for long-horizon agentic workloads with a 1 million-token context window and a chain-of-thought reasoning architecture. It is purpose-built for complex, multi-step autonomous tasks. Alibaba demonstrated the model running for 35 hours without degradation, executing over 1,000 tool calls in a single session — making it a strong candidate for coding agents, automated pipelines, and deep document analysis. On benchmarks, it ranks 13th globally on LM Arena's text leaderboard and scores 56.6 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, making it the highest-ranked Chinese model on that index. It posted 90.2 on Arena-Hard v2 and 72.5 on SWE-Bench Verified. Qwen3.7 Max supports the Anthropic API protocol natively, so it integrates cleanly with tooling like Claude Code. It is well-suited for developers building coding assistants, research agents, or any API use case requiring extended reasoning over large contexts.
