Overview

Tencent's 406B flagship MoE with 32B active parameters and 256k context. Strong on Chinese and English, but gated by the custom Tencent Hunyuan license.

  • Frontier Chinese-language production workloads
  • Long-context RAG and document analysis up to 256k tokens
  • Bilingual EN/CN enterprise deployments
  • Use cases compatible with the Tencent Hunyuan license
