Qwen3-VL is the latest multimodal large language model series from Alibaba Cloud’s Qwen team, designed to integrate advanced vision and language understanding. It represents a major upgrade in the Qwen lineup, with stronger text generation, deeper visual reasoning, and expanded multimodal comprehension. The model supports dense and Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures, making it scalable from edge devices to cloud deployments, and is available in both instruction-tuned and reasoning-enhanced variants. Qwen3-VL is built for complex tasks such as GUI automation, multimodal coding (converting images or videos into HTML, CSS, JS, or Draw.io diagrams), long-context reasoning with support up to 1M tokens, and comprehensive video understanding. It also brings advanced perception capabilities, including spatial grounding, object recognition, OCR across 32 languages, and robust handling of challenging inputs like low-light or distorted text.
