Qwen4-Max Preview Quietly Goes Live on Alibaba's Token Plan at 20% Off
meshive · reddit · 2026-11-11
Alibaba's Qwen team has quietly launched Qwen4-Max in preview, with the announcement opening with "Qwen4 is coming" — signaling the rest of the family is on the way.
So far it's Max only, exposed as qwen4-max-preview (text, reasoning, vision) on Alibaba's Token Plan with an 80% off tag, plus early access via QwenWork, Qoder, the Qwen app, and QwenStudio. Qwen is pitching it at coding and agent work, such as front-end builds.
No benchmarks, context length, or parameter count have been disclosed, and nothing is on Hugging Face yet — leaving open the question of whether any Qwen4 size will ship open weights.
