Evidence snapshot:

Qwen3 Coder Next is a Alibaba Qwen model profile with a 262,144-token context window. The dated catalog snapshot records text modalities and interfaces for agentic, coding, prompt caching, reasoning, structured output.

Qwen3-Coder-Next is an open-weight causal language model optimized for coding agents and local development workflows. It uses a sparse MoE design with 80B total parameters and only 3B activated per...

Qwen3 Coder Next is mid-catalog on every dimension this snapshot measures. Pick it when it is already in your stack or when the specifics below match the job, not because a number here stands out.

Qwen3 Coder Next is available under the Kendr alias kc-qwen3-coder-next. Current account availability and customer credit quotes come from Kendr's live public model API and applicable account policy.

Qwen3 Coder Next accepts text and returns text. The snapshot records agentic, coding, prompt caching, reasoning, structured output, text generation, tool calling, tools, and web search as capabilities or interfaces.

The dated reference snapshot lists $0.12 input and $0.8 output per million tokens. Cached input is $0.036 per million tokens. The separately published provider-route reference is Route-specific (From $0.30 / $1.20 depending on the selected route; up to $0.50 / $1.50).

The 2026-09-06 snapshot includes 1 Artificial Analysis index. Publisher-reported launch results are labeled and are not presented as Kendr measurements; scores from different suites are not treated as interchangeable.

No comparable popularity rank or traffic share is present in the 2026-09-06 snapshot. No comparable routing rank or traffic-share observation is attached to this dated profile; missing adoption evidence is not estimated.

Profile data was reviewed for the 2026-09-06 snapshot. Claims retain their source dates, and unavailable fields are shown as unavailable instead of estimated.
