Qwen3 32B: common questions

How does Qwen3 32B rank among AI models?

Qwen3 32B holds ModelCap Index position #165 of 352 ranked language models as of 6 November 2026, with an Index score of 39.4 (interval 33.4–45.4); evidence: measured. The Index combines public benchmark boards with published uncertainty; the methodology page explains the weighting.

How much does Qwen3 32B cost per 1M tokens?

Qwen3 32B is listed at $0.08 per 1M input tokens and $0.28 per 1M output tokens as of 6 November 2026 across 3 providers. Prices come from the OpenRouter catalogue and re-observe on every refresh. For 1,000 requests using 2,000 input and 500 output tokens each, the listed rates imply $0.30 total (2M input + 0.5M output). This excludes caching, batch discounts, prompt-length tiers, tool charges and retries; verify the chosen endpoint's rate and limits before budgeting.

What is the context window of Qwen3 32B?

Qwen3 32B has a published context window of 131K tokens (131,072). The snapshot lists a 16,384 token catalogue-declared route output cap. OpenRouter catalogue or provider-endpoint declaration. Limits can vary by provider and prompt length; a model-wide maximum has not been independently verified. The providers table lists each endpoint's context limit.

Is Qwen3 32B open-weight?

Open weights (apache-2.0). Downloadable weights are published under an OSI or free-culture license in the current repository metadata. This describes weight availability, not whether the full training stack qualifies as Open Source AI. The repository is Qwen/Qwen3-32B on Hugging Face.

Which API providers serve Qwen3 32B?

3 providers serve Qwen3 32B through OpenRouter as of 6 November 2026: DeepInfra, Tenstorrent and SiliconFlow. Each provider's price, context limit, quantization and measured uptime are in the providers table above.
