Kimi K2 Thinking

1T-parameter open agentic reasoning model

Visit official page →

About

Kimi K2 Thinking is Moonshot AI's reasoning follow-up to Kimi K2: a trillion-parameter mixture-of-experts model with 32B active parameters, trained end-to-end for agentic work with tool use. Moonshot reports standout agentic numbers — 60.2% on BrowseComp and 71.3% on SWE-Bench Verified with tools enabled — and independent trackers have ranked it near the top of open-weight models. It is open-weight, which is remarkable at this scale, but "open" does not mean cheap to run: serving a 1T-parameter MoE needs serious infrastructure, and most users will meet it through Moonshot's API rather than self-hosting. Benchmark claims come from Moonshot and third-party aggregators and vary by evaluator.
