| description: The next generation of open frontier models from Moonshot AI. | |
| # Kimi K3 | |
| K3 is the next generation of open frontier models from Moonshot AI. It builds on everything we learned scaling K2 to trillions of tokens, with a focus on deep reasoning, agentic tool use, and long-horizon coding. | |
| ## What to expect | |
| - Mixture-of-experts architecture, significantly more efficient at inference than K2 | |
| - Native agentic capabilities: tool calling, browsing, and multi-step planning | |
| - Extended context window designed for repository-scale code understanding | |
| - Open weights, with a permissive license, released right here on this page | |
| ## Stay in the loop | |
| Hit **Like and Notify on release** and we will send you a single email the moment the weights are public. No spam, just the drop. | |
