Our take
Written Sep 17, 2026Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B is a text-in, text-out model you can download and run yourself, and ten hosts serve it at one shared rate. No licence is supplied and no benchmark scores are, so the terms and the quality both need checking before you commit.
Use it for long-document work where a whole report or a stack of files goes into one request instead of being chunked, and where you are willing to trial it on your own tasks. Because every listed host charges the same rate, choosing between them comes down to speed and reliability rather than price. Skip it if you need a licence you can read before building a commercial product on it, or if you need measured evidence of quality.
The case for it
- You can download it and run it yourself, so a host is optional and you are not tied to one company's uptime or terms.
- The request capacity takes a long report or a stack of documents beside the question, though reliable recall across all of it is unverified in our data.
- All ten listed hosts charge the same rate, so picking between them is a question of speed and reliability, neither of which is measured here.
The case against it
- No licence is supplied, so whether commercial use, changes and redistribution are permitted is unverified in our data and would need checking at the source.
- No benchmark scores are supplied, so there is no evidence of coding, reasoning or chat ability and the only way to judge it is a trial on work you can check yourself.
- The parameter count is not published, so nothing here indicates what running it yourself would require.
How good is it?
We hold no score for this model.
So there is no figure here for everyday use, coding, agent work or writing. That is a gap in our data, not a low score.

Across the 8 listings we hold: 7 say they do not train on prompts (2 of them only through OpenRouter), 0 say they do and 1 does not say. 6 appear in the zero-retention registry we check (2 of them only through OpenRouter); the rest are unknown to us.
What each host's API supports
From the parameter list each endpoint publishes. Streaming is omitted: nothing we hold reports it, for any model.

What we do not know about this model yet
- We hold no measured file for it, so all 3 sizes on this page are calculated from the parameter count.
- No independent board has scored it, so we hold no quality figures at all.
- Nothing we hold says whether an endpoint streams, so we do not show it either way.
- 1 of 8 listings does not say whether it trains on prompts, and 2 answer only through OpenRouter, not for their own listing.
- We hold no batch or off-peak rate for any of its listings.
- We hold a decode speed for it, but no prompt-processing (prefill) figure, so how long the input side of a job takes is unknown to us.

Custom licence
This model ships custom license terms that don't map to a known template. We haven't parsed them, so commercial use, redistribution and derivatives are unverified — review the original terms before shipping.
