Overview
Alibaba's current proprietary flagship — a 2.4T-parameter mixture-of-experts model with a 1M-token context that takes text, image and video input and returns text. $2.00/$6.00 per 1M tokens, a single flat tier across the whole 1M context, with thinking tokens billed at the output rate. The open weights shipped on 2026-08-08 as Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B, which Alibaba now also sells as its own Model Studio SKU at the same $2.00/$6.00 rate; the price here is for this proprietary multimodal SKU.
