Hy3 (free)

Hunyuan · text → text

The Hy3 official version is honed for real-world business scenarios, using a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with 295B total parameters and 21B activated parameters. It natively supports a 256K context window and offers multiple thinking modes: no_think (ultra-fast response), think_low (quick thinking), and think_high (deep reasoning), balancing ultra-fast responses, complex reasoning, and invocation cost. Compared with the Preview version, Hy3—based on real business feedback from Tencent Yuanbao, WorkBuddy, ima, Marvis, and others—focuses on improving the Coding Agent, long-form understanding, multi-turn context continuity, search QA, and complex task execution, performing more stably in reducing hallucinations, improving task completion, and engineering usability. It is better suited to practical scenarios such as frontend tasks, cross-file code development, long-document analysis, office automation, and multi-step Agent workflows.
