Qwen3.8 Flash model profile
Evidence snapshot:
Qwen3.8 Flash is a Alibaba Qwen model profile with a 1,000,000-token context window. The dated catalog snapshot records text, image, video modalities and interfaces for prompt caching, reasoning controls, structured output, text generation, tool calling.
Qwen3.8 Flash is a multimodal reasoning model from Alibaba. It is suited for coding assistance, agentic workflows, visual understanding, document and codebase analysis, desktop interaction, chart analysis, and long-video analysis.
Qwen3.8 Flash is a reference profile: Alibaba Qwen publishes it, Kendr documents it for comparison, and it carries no Kendr alias to call.
Qwen3.8 Flash is an independent knowledge profile. It does not claim that Kendr hosts the model, quote a Kendr customer price, promise API availability, or advertise a Kendr routing receipt.
Qwen3.8 Flash accepts text, image, and video and returns text. The snapshot records prompt caching, reasoning controls, structured output, text generation, tool calling, video input, and vision as capabilities or interfaces.
The dated reference snapshot lists $0.15 input and $0.47 output per million tokens. Cached input is $0.016 per million tokens.
No comparable third-party benchmark value is present in the 2026-09-06 snapshot. Missing values are not estimated.
Qwen3.8 Flash ranked #54 in the cited trailing-7-day third-party catalog usage dataset as of 2026-09-06. Observed within the cited trailing-7-day third-party catalog usage dataset; this is not global AI market share.

When to pick Qwen3.8 Flash
Qwen3.8 Flash is a reference profile: Alibaba Qwen publishes it, Kendr documents it for comparison, and it carries no Kendr alias to call.
Each condition below is derived from this model's own values in the 2026-09-06 snapshot, compared only against models publishing the same field.
- Reach for it when the input includes images. The snapshot records image input, so screenshots, scans, and diagrams can be sent directly instead of described.
- Reach for it when the model has to call tools. Tool calling is recorded in the snapshot, so this route can drive an agent loop rather than only answer in prose.
- Look elsewhere when you need to call it through Kendr today. This is a research reference profile with no Kendr alias. The facts and evidence here are published for comparison; the model is not routable on Kendr.
