The release on Hugging Face follows the October 24 announcement, when the model was offered through Kimi.ai, the mobile app, and paid tools Kimi Work, Kimi Code, and Kimi API. The weights carry a license with one clear condition: a Model-as-a-Service operator whose total sales exceed 20 million dollars over 12 consecutive months must negotiate a separate contract with Moonshot AI. The model's context window reaches up to 1 million tokens, and the company describes improved coding, 3D creation, and financial research functions, with results when combined with tools such as Unity, Unreal Engine, and Godot.
