Our take
Written Sep 2, 2026Qwen 3.7 Max is a hosted-only text model from Alibaba that can handle up to one million tokens in a single request. It scores strongly on mathematics and reasoning tests, though its agentic and creative writing scores lag behind its own general performance.
Pick this for long-document work at one million tokens, or for mathematics and reasoning tasks where its measured scores are high. Use it for general chat and coding via its Arena scores, and shop between providers to avoid paying double. Skip it if you need open weights, multimodal input, or strong agentic behaviour — its agent scores are negative across most dimensions.
The case for it
- One-million-token request limit, among the longest we track for hosted models.
- LiveBench Mathematics at 85.25% and Reasoning at 83.34%, strong on refreshed competition problems.
- Competitive coding scores: 74.22% on LiveBench and 1524.84 on Arena Coding.
- Provider prices vary widely for the same model, so shopping around matters.
The case against it
- Agentic coding is far below standard coding: 43.59% versus 74.22% on LiveBench.
- Arena agent scores are negative on task outcome, steerability and instruction-following.
- Proprietary weights with no open licence disclosed.
