Qwen3.5 4B

by Alibaba

All Alibaba releases

Qwen3.5 4B is a compact 4 billion parameter multimodal model that pairs vision-language capability with a hybrid architecture combining Gated DeltaNet and Mixture-of-Experts layers. It supports a 262,144 token native context window, extensible toward roughly one million tokens with YaRN scaling, and reports MMLU-Pro 79.1. Trained with early fusion on multimodal tokens, it handles image-text-to-text tasks and video understanding while staying efficient relative to larger models. It runs in thinking mode by default, generating reasoning before responses. The model suits knowledge-intensive tasks, visual reasoning, and agent-based applications with tool calling across more than 200 languages where a small multimodal model is preferred.

100%route uptime, last 30 days
Its other routes aren't measured here yet.

Name a second model in the same request and the gateway tries it on retriable errors, so a busy hour never has to reach your users. Set up a fallback chain.

Measured over the last 30 days from each provider's official status feed via StatusGator. Refreshed hourly. 1 further route is not on the board yet. See uptime for every provider Opper monitors.
