Hunyuan Hy3
AvailableThe general-availability release of Tencent's third-generation Hunyuan (Hunyuan 3.0), officially launched and open-sourced on July 6, 2026 after April's "Hy3 preview". A 295B-total / 21B-active Transformer MoE with an additional 3.8B multi-token-prediction (MTP) layer and a 256K-token context, offering three selectable inference modes that blend fast and slow thinking. Positioned as a leading open model for its size and cost efficiency, with standout results in coding, search, and scientific reasoning: Tencent reports it rivals flagship open models such as GLM-5.2 and DeepSeek-V4 (at 2-5x the active parameters) and matches or surpasses GPT-5.5 on several science benchmarks. Vendor-reported scores include 78.0 on SWE-bench Verified and 57.9 on SWE-bench Pro. Now Apache-2.0 licensed (the preview used Tencent's community license), with weights on Hugging Face (tencent/Hy3) and ModelScope and a free two-week API route on OpenRouter (tencent/hy3:free) through July 21, 2026. Deeply integrated into WeChat and Tencent's core products.
Hunyuan Hy3-preview
AvailableTencent's third-generation Hunyuan, rebuilt from scratch in ~90 days and open-sourced as the "Hy3 preview".

Vendor-reported results: 74.4 on SWE-bench Verified, 54.4 on Terminal-Bench 2.0, and 70.2 on WideSearch, with strong STEM-olympiad performance. Open weights on GitHub and Hugging Face under Tencent's community license.
