Moonshot AI has suspended new subscriptions to its Kimi K3 model for 48 hours after a surge in demand strained available GPU capacity. The company said the model, released on July 16, carries 2.8 trillion parameters and supports a 1 million-token context window. Running it requires at least eight H100 or H200 equivalent GPUs, underscoring the compute burden behind the launch.
Moonshot AI said subscriptions will return in batches rather than all at once. The company also plans to release the model’s full open-source weights on July 27. The update points to strong early demand for Kimi K3, but also highlights infrastructure constraints tied to large-scale model deployment.
According to CryptoBriefing, Moonshot AI recently raised about $2 billion at a valuation above $20 billion. Its pricing strategy is aimed at enterprise users, with input tokens priced at $3 per million.
