Start from your task
Find the page that matches the decision.
Choose a model
Start with stable entity pages for Kimi, Qwen, DeepSeek and GLM rather than a news-driven list.
Browse model guides →Get API access
Compare official platforms, API keys and third-party provider routes without treating them as identical.
Start with Kimi API →Compare pricing
Keep the original billing currency, cache rules, provider and region attached to every quoted price.
Review Kimi pricing →Evaluate coding options
Compare the coding client, model, provider, open-weight route and data-control path separately.
Compare coding agents →Plan self-hosting
Open weights move control toward your infrastructure, but also move operations and model-serving work to your team.
Open deployment guides →Prepare enterprise review
Bring provider identity, region, retention, contracts and procurement evidence into the adoption decision.
Evaluate for enterprise →Evaluation model
Do not collapse four layers into one label.
A model can be open-weight while a managed API still sends data through an external provider. A familiar model name does not answer the data-path question.
01
Model
The weights and capabilities you intend to use.
02
Provider
The company serving requests or routing them onward.
03
Deployment
Official API, cloud provider, aggregator, VPC or self-hosted runtime.
04
Data path
Where prompts, files, responses, logs and credentials actually travel.
