Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash

Alibaba (Qwen) · 17 September 2026

Natively multimodal agent model on the Qwen3.8-Next MoE architecture with a 1M-token context, built to plan and finish tasks, not just perceive.

Native multimodal co-training keeps text ability while transferring agentic skill to audio and video. Inherits Qwen3.8-Next's sparse MoE, extends context to 1M tokens, and targets video editing, translation and music-video generation. The report also presents the Qwen-MM-Plugins framework.
