Data retention
Default inference prompts and responses are retained up to 30 days, subject to legal/security exceptions. Stateful conversation storage and files remain until deleted by the user. This release is not named in the current ZDR roster; do not assume zero retention.Source for Data retention (opens in a new tab)
Cards also publish batch prices for larger input tiers. Those rates do not establish accepted request limits; confirm the deployed batch contract before relying on them.
Published regional list rates, excluding promotions. K=1,000 and M=1,000,000. Total input length selects the rate for the whole request. Cached input is implicit-cache reads. Explicit cache and batch charges are separate. Cached input price: $0.006 / 1M tokens (base tier).

What the measurements say
No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.
Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.
The record behind the model
Why it is included
Inference from release-specific Alibaba-managed API documentation and the reviewed official Qwen public-weight inventory. No matching weights are published for this named hosted release in that inventory. Public Qwen3.8-Flash-Next, Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B and older Qwen-Omni checkpoints are separate identities and are excluded; this is not a blanket classification of the Qwen family.
