by Alibaba Cloud / Qwen Team

Qwen3 VL 30B A3B Thinking (Reasoning) is a reasoning model from Alibaba Cloud / Qwen Team, released on September 22, 2025. It has a 131K-token context window and can generate up to 33K output tokens. API pricing is $0.2 per 1M input tokens and $1 per 1M output tokens.

Qwen3-VL is a large multimodal model that unifies vision, language, and reasoning to achieve human-level perception and cognition across text, images, and video. Built on a 235B-parameter architecture, it integrates early joint training of visual and textual modalities for strong language grounding. The model supports up to a 1 million-token context window and excels at visual understanding, spatial reasoning, long video comprehension, and tool-based interaction. It can generate code from images, perform precise 2D/3D object grounding, and operate digital interfaces like a visual agent. The “Instruct” version rivals Gemini 2.5 Pro in perception benchmarks, while the “Thinking” version leads in multimodal reasoning and STEM tasks. With multilingual OCR, creative writing, and fine-grained scene interpretation, Qwen3-VL establishes a new open-source frontier for integrated vision-language intelligence.
