Qwen 3.8 Max now available on Vercel AI Gateway
Summary
Vercel AI Gateway now offers Qwen 3.8 Max, a 2.4 T‑parameter multimodal LLM with up to 1 M token context. It can be invoked via the standard `streamText` API or through Vercel’s coding agents, with no extra platform fees and full control over usage and security.
- Qwen 3.8 Max is a 2.4 trillion‑parameter LLM with a 1 million‑token context window that supports both text and vision inputs.
- Vercel AI Gateway exposes the model via a unified API; set `model: 'alibaba/qwen3.8-max'` in the `streamText` helper to call it.
- The model can be selected in Vercel’s coding agents, enabling code generation or UI creation from screenshots and design files.
- AI Gateway passes provider pricing through unchanged, supports BYOK, zero‑data‑retention, usage budgets, and routing rules for reliability.
Teams building AI‑augmented tooling or UI generation benefit from a large multimodal model that can be accessed through Vercel’s AI Gateway without additional costs.
