Tencent: Hy3
Hy3 is a 295B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model from Tencent (21B active, 192 experts with top-8 routing) built for reasoning, agentic workflows, and real-world production use. It supports a configurable reasoning effort:...
Anyone in the Project can @-mention Tencent: Hy3 with the team's shared context - pooled credits, one chat, one memory.

Verdict
Best for
- Long-context document summarization under budget
- Codebase analysis across multiple files
- Legal or compliance document review
- Cost-sensitive RAG preprocessing
- Multi-turn conversations with deep history
Strengths
The 262K context window puts Hy3 in the same league as Claude 3.5 Sonnet and GPT-4 Turbo for handling entire books or large codebases in a single prompt. Pricing undercuts most Western models by 40-50% on input tokens, which compounds savings on high-volume workloads. Tencent's infrastructure means low-latency access for Asia-Pacific teams, and the model supports Chinese and English natively — useful for bilingual document processing.
Trade-offs
Zero public benchmarks means you can't compare reasoning quality, code generation accuracy, or instruction-following against Claude, GPT-4, or Gemini before committing. Early adopters report inconsistent output quality on complex multi-step tasks compared to frontier models. Tencent's API documentation and developer tooling lag behind OpenAI and Anthropic, so expect more friction during integration. The model also lacks multimodal support — no vision, no audio — limiting use cases to pure text.
