The Zhitong Finance App learned that on July 19, the Alibaba (09988) Qianwen team announced that the new generation model Qwen 3.8 will soon be launched, with a total number of model parameters reaching 2.4 trillion, and plans to open up model weights after the official launch. According to the forecast, Qwen3.8 is still in a continuous iteration phase. The Qianwen team positioned it as one of the most capable models at present, and said that its overall performance has entered the ranks of cutting-edge models in the world, second only to Anthropic's Fable 5. The Qwen3.8-Max-Preview preview model has been first connected to Alibaba's Token Plan, Qoder, and QoderWork, and developers can call and test it in advance.
Alibaba Cloud said that compared to the previous flagship model Qwen3.7-Max, the new model has significantly improved core capabilities such as coding (coding) and professional office (Cowork). It has demonstrated world-leading comprehensive capabilities in complex long-term tasks such as full-stack development, data analysis, and Office office workflows, and is still evolving.
New users log in to Qoder for the first time to get a 14-day Pro Trial (with 300 Credits), during which they will automatically receive a discount. There is also a limited-time discount. Daytime Credits are as low as 10% off, and nighttime is even better. The monthly payment for individual or team editions starts at only RMB 35. Trial users are not eligible for this promotion if they are not in the Pro Trial period or if their Credits have been exhausted.
The parameter scale of Tongyi Qianwen 3.8-Max is closer to the flagship model Kimi K3, which was just released a few days ago on the dark side of Alibaba's investment month. The latter parameter scale is 2.8 trillion yuan.
