Kimi K3This free model API comes from the OpenAI model deployed on Azure. To prevent abuse, the external content filter provided by Azure has been enforced, which will result in additional delays. If you want to experience the full version of the model API without filters, please use the paid version and request the model name ID without "-free".
Kimi K3 is Kimi’s flagship model for long-horizon coding and end-to-end knowledge work, with a 1M-token context window and industry-leading intelligence.
Prices are per million tokens. Time to First Token and throughput are rolling averages measured on AIHubMix.
Promotional prices show the discounted rate; see each model page for promotion windows.
Daily traffic served through AIHubMix — how demand for each model is trending.
Measured on real AIHubMix traffic, hourly buckets. Gaps mean no traffic in that hour.
LMArena ratings by capability (Bradley-Terry, commonly called Elo). Higher is better.
