Tencent Open-Sources Hunyuan Hy4 Preview: 770B MoE with 1M Context
Tencent released Hunyuan Hy4 preview on 08-28, first on WorkBuddy, then integrated into OpenCode Go, and open-sourced it under Apache 2.0 on 08-30 with vLLM support from day one, validated on NVIDIA GPUs. The model is a 770B-total / 49B-active MoE with 1M token context and a native MTP layer for speculative decoding, and is described as Tencent's strongest model to date.
Confirmed
- Official posts (@TencentHunyuan) highlight strong performance in research synthesis, Office workflows (cross-file analysis, Excel accuracy, PPT layout), front-end development, and game prototyping, optimized for Coding Agent scenarios.
- Internal blind test: 163 experts over 203 real engineering tasks scored Hy4 preview 2.99/4, beating GLM-5.3 (2.92) and Kimi K series.
- @AlchainHust reported an Arena coding score of 1633, on par with Grok-4.6 and Claude Fable 5; official evals claim metrics approaching GPT 5.6 Sol.
- @vista8's 8-project test found major front-end aesthetic gains, stable long-horizon tasks, and strong office usability, including audio-driven animation effects.
- An invited tester (retweeted by @TencentHunyuan) judged overall capability close to GLM-5.3 and above the DeepSeek V4 series, with clear coding improvements.
- A developer built a fully playable browser game in WorkBuddy using the model.
- Pricing starts low for input tokens (original post truncated at "$0…").
Why it matters
- Apache 2.0 open-sourcing of a 770B flagship MoE with 1M context and MTP speculative decoding gives developers a self-hostable top-tier Chinese model for long workflows and agents, while low pricing may intensify domestic model price competition.
