Kimi K3.1 Pro vs Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next

Kimi K3.1 Pro 40

Memory 0, the only build is Moonshot's 1,561 GB MXFP4 release, far above 256 GB. Runtimes 5, llama.cpp b12242 alone has the model code in a release, since vLLM's recipe needs 0.34.0 and SGLang's cookbook a branch. Builds 10, one precision. Terms 10, free commercial use below a model-as-a-service revenue threshold. Download 10, not gated. Hosted 5, Moonshot's API and Together serve it. 0 + 5 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 5 = 40.

Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 65

Memory 5 of 30, the smallest 4-bit build is UkisAI's IQ4_XS GGUF at 98.6 GB with the vision projector, 118.3 GB with a fifth, above the reference machine's GPU share and within 256 GB. Runtimes 25, the architecture is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next's (qwen4_exp), which released llama.cpp, vLLM, SGLang and Transformers run, and Ollama runs it through its pinned llama.cpp (b11963 in v0.40.14), this run's reading for Ollama. Builds 15, GGUF, INT4 and NVFP4 builds from UkisAI. Terms 10, two custom licences that allow commercial use within limits. Download 10, not gated. Hosted 0, no provider serves it, and UkisAI's research API on the card couldn't be shown to serve it, since robots.txt disallows calling it. 5 + 25 + 15 + 10 + 10 + 0 = 65.

Kimi K3.1 Pro 51

Model card 11, no limitations, languages or cut-off. Training data 5, one general sentence. Last change 20, a commit on 5 November 2026.

File health 10, the files agree. 11 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 10 = 51.

Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 40

Model card 5 of 20, intended use and context only. Training data 5, a general description with no cut-off. Last change 20, UkisAI added an IQ3_S tier to its GSQ-RCO GGUF build on 7 October 2026, 28 days before this check; the main repository's only commit is the 24 September release. Responsiveness 0, UkisAI answered none of 3 discussions. Version policy 5, a first release, renamed without a note. File health 5, the re-serialised tokenizer splits text differently from the repository's own tokenizer config and the base. 5 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 5 = 40.

File safety 15, safetensors only, less 10 for remote code and prompts built by the repository's script. Provenance 15, Moonshot's own organisation with a hash on every file. Safety evaluation 10, Moonshot's own cyber benchmark results and nobody else's yet. Agent guidance 0, none on the card. Licence risk 10, the revenue threshold. Security programme 0, no way to report a flaw found. 15 + 15 + 10 + 0 + 10 + 0 = 50.

Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 45

File safety 25, safetensors only and no code in the repository, though the card's vLLM command passes trust-remote-code. Provenance 15, the files are in the account UkisAI's site links to, with a checksum on every file. Safety evaluation 0, none published. Agent guidance 0, nothing on prompt injection, refusals or safeguards. Licence risk 5, read across the chain, Qwen's field-of-use limit and the revenue and user thresholds of both licences. Security programme 0, no way to report a flaw was found.

Context 10, 1M tokens. 10 + 10 + 20 + 5 + 10 + 10 = 65.

Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 60

Trained tool calling 20, several calls a turn and agentic post-training. Structured output 0, not documented. Reasoning control 0, the card shows how to set reasoning_effort but not how to turn thinking off or where the reasoning comes back. Context 10, 262,144 tokens native.
