Overview

The Qwen3 series of visual understanding models effectively integrates thinking and non-thinking modes. Compared to the snapshot released on September 23, this version delivers superior performance in reasoning and analysis tasks as well as style control, while also offering lower latency and faster response speeds. This version is based on a snapshot taken on December 19, 2025.

Features

Prefix Completion

Enable Partial Mode when calling the Qwen API to make the model continue strictly from your provided prefix text.View docs

Function Calling

Use function calling to connect large language models with external tools and systems.View docs

Cache

Context Cache stores shared prefixes for long-context requests to reduce repeated computation, improve latency, and lower cost.View docs

Structured Outputs

Structured Outputs help ensure the model returns a JSON string in the expected format.View docs

Batches

Asynchronously process requests in batches to reduce costs.View docs

Web Search

Enable web search so the model can answer with real-time retrieved data.View docs

Fine-tuning

Train models on sample data to better adapt them to specific tasks.View docs
