Moonshot launches Kimi K3.1 Pro on the Kimi API platform with a quickstart for kimi-k3.1-pro and kimi-k3.1-pro-highspeed

In one minute

Moonshot has documented Kimi K3.1 Pro on its Kimi API platform.

What changed: Same event as Moonshot released Kimi K3.1 Pro , a 2.8T total / 104B active MoE with 1M-token context.

The quickstart lists two model IDs: kimi-k3.1-pro and kimi-k3.1-pro-highspeed, the latter described as delivering two to three times the speed of the base Pro model.

The documentation specifies a one-million-token context window, vision input, tool calling, and streaming responses with reasoning content separated from the main content. Thinking is always enabled. A top-level reasoning_effort parameter accepts low, high, or max, with max as the default.

API access is unlocked after a successful top-up of at least $1. Cumulative top-ups determine the account tier and rate limits. Moonshot describes K3.1 Pro as a post-trained Kimi K3 model and says full weights will be released by November 4.

The source does not provide API token pricing, current rate-limit figures, a release year for the weights date, or independently verified benchmark results. Several benchmark values displayed in the documentation excerpt are placeholders.
