MoonshotAI: Kimi K3.1 Pro API
Moonshot AI's flagship open-weight multimodal reasoning model with a 1M-token context, native image and video input, and strong coding, 3D, and finance performance.
Kimi K3.1 Pro is Moonshot AI's flagship open-weight multimodal reasoning model and the first release in the K3.1 series, launched on October 23, 2026. It is a post-training upgrade of Kimi K3, described by the company as a 3T-class model with a total parameter count reported to match K3's 2.8 trillion. It is offered through the Kimi website, Kimi Work, Kimi Code, and the API.
The model has native visual understanding: it accepts image and video input and offers a 1M-token context window for very long text and complex tasks. Compared with the previous generation, coding, 3D creation, and financial research improved notably. On Terminal-Bench 4.0 it scores 65.7%, close to Claude Opus 5.5 at 66.4% and above GPT-6 Astra at 58.2%; internal tests put financial research at 70.4 points, up from 58.8, and financial modeling at 57.6, up from 50.4. Individual-statement hallucination rate on Kimi Hallu Bench Hard dropped from 23.4% to 8.3%.
It fits long-horizon coding, 3D model and game design, financial statement analysis and investment research, financial modeling, and end-to-end agentic knowledge work. Multi-agent orchestration scales to hundreds of parallel subagents for autonomous task decomposition. The model is open-weight, with full weights planned for release before November 4, 2026, and its cyber-offense capability is deliberately capped as a safety measure.
