Kimi K3 is now available in NEO alongside GPT-5.6 and Fable 5, with BYOK support for OpenRouter, Anthropic, or OpenAI keys.
In NEO’s internal evaluation on a real AI engineering task—building a complete AutoML framework from scratch—both Kimi K3 and GLM 5.2 produced passing test suites, but only Kimi K3 caught a data-leakage bug that made GLM’s score look artificially perfect. NEO says Kimi K3 scored 68/100 on its production rubric versus 54/100 for GLM 5.2.
