Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

Qwen publishes the BF16 post-trained checkpoint on Hugging Face under the Qwen Community 1.0 license. The model card documents native text, image, and video input, reasoning-effort controls, and a 262,144-token native context window that can be extended to 1,000,000 tokens with YaRN. Qwen Cloud offers a separate production Qwen3.8-Flash model based on this architecture; this row does not inherit that sibling's features or pricing.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #48 of 230 on the public leaderboard with a score of 62.99/100. It does not yet have enough sourced coverage for a verified position.

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is a open weight model with a 262K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Qwen publishes the BF16 post-trained checkpoint on Hugging Face under the Qwen Community 1.0 license. The model card documents native text, image, and video input, reasoning-effort controls, and a 262,144-token native context window that can be extended to 1,000,000 tokens with YaRN. Qwen Cloud offers a separate production Qwen3.8-Flash model based on this architecture; this row does not inherit that sibling's features or pricing.

Official exact-value snapshot from Qwen's August 26, 2026 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next model card and technical report. We map only the post-trained model-card rows that match existing protocols, keep the 262,144-token native context instead of the optional 1M YaRN extension, and preserve paired no-Code-Interpreter and Code-Interpreter visual scores separately. DeepSWE 1.1 uses the best result across Claude Code and mini-SWE-agent, SWE-bench Pro uses Qwen's corrected-task Claude Code run, and the remaining harness-specific agent results stay display-only. ClawEval-MM, RecreationBench, and the technical report's 14 base-model benchmarks remain outside this post-trained row rather than being collapsed into non-equivalent or cross-stage fields.

25 of 774 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Its strongest eligible category is Multimodal & Grounded at #12, while its lowest eligible position is Knowledge at #53. particularly strong for screenshots, documents, charts, and grounded multimodal workflows.

Last updated October 27, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #48 out of 230 models on the public BenchAlign leaderboard, with a score of 62.99/100. Its evidence status is Estimated, and this profile shows 25 source-displayable benchmark rows. The label describes evidence depth, not a provider quality claim; inspect category rows before choosing a workload.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next good for knowledge and understanding?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #53 out of 189 eligible models for knowledge and understanding, with a public category score of 59.3/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next good for coding and programming?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #43 out of 155 eligible models for coding and programming, with a public category score of 51.9/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #19 out of 134 eligible models for agentic tool use and computer tasks, with a public category score of 65/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next good for multimodal and grounded tasks?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #12 out of 58 eligible models for multimodal and grounded tasks, with a public category score of 86.1/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next good for instruction following?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next ranks #24 out of 156 eligible models for instruction following, with a public category score of 91.2/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-Flash-Next open source?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is an open-weight model from Alibaba. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Does Qwen3.8-Flash-Next have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Qwen3.8-Flash-Next currently has 40 source-displayable rows. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Qwen3.8-Flash-Next?

Qwen3.8-Flash-Next has a documented context window of 262K. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
