What is Kimi K3?

A large model designed for work that does not fit in one short prompt.

Read the complete model guide
01 / Model2.8T flagship

Kimi K3 is Moonshot AI’s 2.8-trillion-parameter flagship model for long-horizon coding, knowledge work, reasoning, and native visual understanding. Official documentation describes a context window of up to one million tokens, allowing supported clients to work across large repositories, long documents, extended conversations, and mixed text-and-image evidence.

02 / RelationshipOfficial model, independent access

The model and this website are different things. Moonshot AI develops Kimi K3 and operates the official Kimi products and API. Luluisland studio operates KimiK3.online as an independent playground, API proxy, account system, and credit service. Model specifications come from first-party Kimi sources; product promises on this site describe our own interface.

03 / PracticeCapacity, not a target

A one-million-token maximum is capacity, not a reason to fill every request. Good applications retrieve relevant material, reserve room for output, use caching when eligible, validate structured results, and select reasoning effort according to task complexity. For production decisions, test Kimi K3 on work drawn from your own repository or research process.
