Model Card
Hunyuan Image 3.0 is a text-to-image generation model from Tencent's Hunyuan team, built as an 80B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model with 13B parameters active per token. Unlike diffusion-based generators, it uses a unified autoregressive framework modeling text and image tokens together, and Tencent calls it the largest open-source MoE image generation model released to date.
The model is tuned for prompt understanding, using world-knowledge reasoning to interpret sparse prompts and fill in contextually appropriate detail, aiming for photorealistic, semantically accurate output.
In Tencent's human evaluation of 1,000 prompts by over 100 professional evaluators, Hunyuan Image 3.0 scored a 14.10% relative win rate over its predecessor, Hunyuan Image 2.1, and beat Seedream 4.0 (1.17%), Nano Banana (2.64%), and GPT-Image (5.00%) by the same measure.
It's part of the same Hunyuan family as Tencent's A13B and Hy3 chat models, and suits developers who need strong prompt adherence and photorealism from a text-to-image API.

Hy4
Hy4 is the official release of Tencent Hunyuan's Hy4 model series, the successor to Hy4 Preview. Tencent reports substantial improvements over the preview, with the largest gains in agentic capabilities and long-horizon, real-world productivity tasks. Unlike the text-only preview, Hy4 accepts both text and image input and returns text. It supports a context window of about 1M tokens and up to 65,536 output tokens, with tool calling, structured outputs, and configurable reasoning effort (none, low, or high). It suits developers building coding agents, multi-step tool-use workflows, and productivity applications that need long context and image understanding via API.
ChatHy4 Preview
Tencent Hy4 Preview is an open-weight Mixture-of-Experts model from Tencent's Hunyuan team, the successor to Hy3. It has 770B total parameters with 49B active per token, and supports a context window over 1M tokens. It's released under the Apache 2.0 license and supports tool calling. In Tencent's internal blind evaluation across 203 engineering tasks judged by 163 experts, Hy4 Preview scored 2.99 out of 4.00, ahead of GLM-5.3 (2.92) and Kimi K3 (2.94). It scores 85.4 on Terminal-Bench 2.1, surpassing DeepSeek V4 Pro, and 82.9 on SWE-bench Multilingual, up from Hy3's 75.8. On DeepSWE, its score rose from Hy3's 28.0 to 64.3. It's aimed at coding agents, software engineering, office and document generation, and scientific research workflows via API.
ChatHy-MT2 1.8B
Hy-MT2 1.8B is a lightweight multilingual translation model from Tencent Hunyuan, part of the Hy-MT2 family that also includes 7B and 30B-A3B (MoE) variants for heavier workloads. It translates across 33 languages, including Chinese, Cantonese, English, French, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Russian, Tibetan, and Uyghur, and is trained to follow translation-specific instructions such as terminology guidance, style adaptation, and structured data translation. Tencent reports that the 1.8B model outperforms mainstream commercial translation APIs from providers like Microsoft and Doubao overall, though it hasn't published specific BLEU or COMET scores to back up the comparison. The larger 7B and 30B-A3B models are reported to outperform DeepSeek-V4-Pro and Kimi K2.6 on translation tasks in fast-thinking mode. With an 8,192-token context window, it's a fit for developers who need fast, low-cost, dedicated translation via API rather than a general-purpose chat model.
