Qwen: Qwen3 Coder Next
The Qwen3 Coder Next model is a text-based AI system developed by qwen. It handles text input and supports the use of external tools. However, it lacks the ability for complex reasoning and does not produce structured output.

With an input cost of $0.12 per million tokens and an output cost of $0.8 per million tokens, it is more expensive than some other options but offers a blended benchmark score of 12.7 across one independent benchmark, suggesting consistent performance.
