Pricing page

qwen4-max-preview is the first Qwen4 model id in Alibaba’s docs. The Model Studio page, last updated November 11, 2026, calls it a multimodal flagship for coding, office work, frontend design, and agentic tasks. Context is 1M tokens. Maximum output is 393,216 tokens, shared by thinking and the answer. Thinking is on by default, at reasoning_effort xhigh.

Pay-as-you-go is not supported. The preview runs from 10:00 on November 11, 2026 to 24:00 on November 25, 2026 (UTC+8). Both the Alibaba Cloud page and the QwenCloud page say the model is retired after that, and that nothing changes during the window.

QwenCloud’s model-prices page, read November 12, does not list a dollar rate for this id. Token Plan Individual starts at $6 a month for 20,000 credits on the Lite plan. Preview credits are 20% of the standard rate, or 8% from 22:00 to 08:00 (UTC+8). The standard rate in credits per token is not printed there. QwenCloud’s Claude Code guide maps the Token Plan Opus slot to this id and leaves the pay-as-you-go Opus slot on qwen3.7-max.

Scores and list-price arithmetic against Gemini 4 Carbon ($2 and $10 per million tokens through November 30) and Claude Fable 5.2 ($8 and $40) are Gemini 4 Carbon vs Fable 5.2: Qwen4-Max preview. Alibaba has not published a FrontierSWE, FrontierCode, or AutomationBench number for this preview. Claude and Gemini are the other two families in that comparison. A harness that needs a cost per task should use an id with a rate card.
