Decision snapshot

Each figure sits next to the middle of the field, so it can be read as dear or cheap, wide or narrow, rather than floating on its own. Compared against the 370 models tracked here, not against an absolute standard.

02 / overview

What Kimi K2.7 Code is, and when to reach for it

Four questions, answered separately, because somebody arrives at one of them rather than at the top of the page.

This model has no written explanation yet.

The page is created the moment a model appears in a provider's catalogue, and the writing follows. Until then the measured sections below are the whole page.

What counts as evidence

Follows Kimi K2.6, and is the newest in its line. See the whole line.

03 / evidence

How much of this is verified

Split by category, so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means it was read on the benchmark's own published results; a provider's claim about its own model is shown and labelled rather than dropped.

No published benchmark scores for this model yet.

A score is published only where the result can be verified. Until a benchmark result for this model exists in a source the tracker reads, this section stays empty rather than being filled with a provider's marketing figure.

What counts as evidence

04 / ledger

Benchmark ledger

Every published row, grouped by category, each compared with the best published score on the same benchmark. 'Is 64% good' is a question nobody can answer; '26 points behind the leader' is one anybody can.

Nothing in the ledger yet.

Each row here carries a score, the benchmark it came from, what the leading model scored on the same test, and a link to the published result. Rows appear as results are published and read.

What counts as evidence

05 / capability

Capability shape

Where this model is strong, and against how many peers. Ranks are against models with evidence in that category, not against every tracked model: ranking against models nobody tested would rank who published, not who is better.

No category scores to shape yet.

A category score is the weighted mean of the benchmarks published for it. With no published rows there is nothing to average, and an empty chart drawn at zero would say something false.

06 / cost

What it costs

List API rates as last read, each with the date it was confirmed, plus every change recorded since tracking began.

List API rates, no caching and no batch discount, which both providers offer and which change the answer a great deal. Treat these as the ceiling, not the bill.

Every model in this family in release order, so a page from eight months ago says in one glance that two newer ones exist.

11 / questions

Questions

The things people ask about this model, answered from what is on this page rather than from anywhere else.

What does Kimi K2.7 Code cost?
$0.67 per million input tokens and $3.35 per million output tokens, as last read from the provider. The cost section works that into a monthly figure.
How current is this page?
The catalogue behind it is re-read every three hours, and the stamp at the top says when it last confirmed. A re-check that finds nothing changed updates that stamp and deliberately does not touch the page’s modified date.
Why are some sections empty?
Because nothing has been published that can be linked to. An empty section is better than a number you cannot check. The methodology sets out what counts.
