About

Kimi K3.1 Pro is a Mixture-of-Experts model from Moonshot AI with 2.8T total and 104B activated parameters, 93 layers (69 KDA and 24 Gated DSA attention layers) and a 1-million-token context window. It is natively multimodal (image-text-to-text) and post-trained from Kimi K3 with large-scale reinforcement learning. It is the first model in the K3.1 series.

Moonshot positions it for coding, 3D creation, financial research, factual accuracy and other agentic tasks. Creators report benchmark results near top closed models (e.g. Terminal Bench 65.7, OSWorld 79.6), though one hands-on review found real-world tests fell short of the best closed models.

It is available through the Kimi chat site and the Kimi platform API (reported at about $2 input / $10 output per million tokens). Weights are published on Hugging Face under a custom "kimi-k3.1-pro" license in compressed-tensors format. The checkpoint is roughly 1.5 TB, so self-hosting needs on the order of 1.2 TB of VRAM, which limits it to enterprise-scale infrastructure.

Key features

  • 1M-token context window
  • Natively multimodal (image and text input)
  • Open weights on Hugging Face
  • Focus on coding, agentic tasks, 3D creation and financial research
  • Available via chat and API

They actually did it... (Kimi K3.1)

Open-weights frontier-class MoE model (~2.8T total, 104B active, 1M context, multimodal). The creator tested it on a Rubik's Cube sim (strong pass), iPhone 3D render, Blender knot (fail), motion graphics, a Fall Guys clone and a site redesign. Benchmarks are near Opus 5.5 (Terminal Bench 65.7, OSWorld 79.6, AA index 55), priced at $2/$10 per million tokens, but real-world tests fall short of the top closed models.
