Kimi K3

Kimi K3 is the name Moonshot AI put on the homepage title and on platform.kimi.ai when I opened it. The K3 product page calls it an open 2.8T-parameter model with Kimi Delta Attention, native vision, and up to a 1 million token context window. The platform lists cache-hit and input/output pricing per million tokens. I treat those as live facts, not a scoreboard. In the consumer composer I saw K3 in the mode line; Kimi Work and Kimi Code are separate doors for desktop and terminal work.

I did not run a production workload on Kimi K3 from this site. Live product: the official Kimi AI website.
