Moonshot AI, a Chinese AI startup, plans to release the model weights for Kimi K3, allowing developers to download the model, modify it for different uses, and run it in their own data centers or cloud environments. The company said Kimi K3 has 2.8 trillion parameters and a 1 million-token context window, enabling it to process large document sets and codebases in a single run. Moonshot AI also plans to publish a technical report covering the model architecture, training methods, and performance evaluation results. After Kimi K3 launched, Moonshot AI’s daily revenue reportedly increased by at least sixfold. The company is also pursuing a new funding round at a $50 billion valuation and is considering a Hong Kong listing as early as this year. According to Bloomberg Intelligence, the release of Kimi K3 and Z.AI’s GLM-5.2 pushed Chinese open-weight models to 68% of overall token usage. AWS Bedrock, Microsoft Azure Foundry, and Google Vertex AI do not yet offer Kimi K3, GLM-5.2, or similar Chinese open-weight models.
