Overview

History

Qwen2.5 Coder 32B Instruct became available via the Alibaba API on 2024-11-11.

Training & availability

Training data has a knowledge cutoff of 2024-06-30 — information about events after that date is unlikely to appear in the model's responses. Alibaba has not released the underlying model weights — access is via their hosted API only.

Capabilities

Context window: 32K tokens.
Input modalities: text.

Limitations

The knowledge cutoff is 21 months old — this model will not know about recent events, releases, or API changes.
The context window (32K tokens) is modest by 2026 standards — unsuitable for processing long documents in a single request.
Text-only — cannot process images, audio, or video inputs.

Pricing

Input: $0.6600 per 1M tokens
Output: $1.0000 per 1M tokens

Quick start

Minimal example using the OpenRouter API. Copy, paste, replace the key.

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1",
    api_key="sk-or-...",
)
resp = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="alibaba/qwen-2-5-coder-32b-instruct",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing in one sentence."}],
)
print(resp.choices[0].message.content)

Price vs quality

Budget pricing

Priced low — good for high-volume tasks. Quality tier pending more benchmark coverage.
