How this price is scoped: Alibaba Model Studio International list price, single 0<Token≤1M tier — unlike qwen3-max this SKU is not tiered by request size. Explicit context-cache hits bill at 10% of the input rate (the cached_input_per_mtok we track); implicit-cache hits bill at 20%.
Price receipt
We read Alibaba's own pricing page on and found qwen3.8-max listed with a price on the same row — that read is where the number above comes from. We keep the page text we read; its content hash is 167fe0b7ad.
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.
