1T-parameter MoE multimodal model with 32B active parameters
moonshotai/Kimi-K2.6mixpeek://image_extractor@v1/moonshotai_kimi_k26_v1Overview
Kimi-K2.6 is a massive Mixture-of-Experts model from Moonshot AI with 1 trillion total parameters and 32 billion active parameters per forward pass. It features native multimodal capabilities via a MoonViT 400M vision encoder, achieving state-of-the-art results on mathematical reasoning (MathVision 93.2%) and multimodal understanding (MMMU-Pro 79.4%). Its MIT-like license makes it one of the most capable openly-licensed models available.
Architecture
Sparse Mixture-of-Experts architecture with 1T total parameters, 32B active per token. Uses MoonViT-400M as the vision encoder for native image understanding. Supports 256K context length. MoE routing enables efficient inference despite massive parameter count.
Mixpeek SDK Integration
// No extractor parameter takes a Hugging Face model id (checked against
// GET /v1/discovery/extractors, which returns 13), so Kimi-K2.6 runs
// on your side and the output is upserted through POST
// /v1/namespaces/{namespace_id}/documents/upsert. On Enterprise the other
// path is to upload the weights instead: POST /v1/namespaces/{id}/models
// accepts the huggingface format and a custom plugin loads them.

// Managed alternative, if this exact model is not the requirement:
// universal_extractor@v1 runs google/gemini-embedding-2
// (3072-d) over a bucket, with no inference of your own.Capabilities
