Models | Mixlayer Docs

Mixlayer hosts a curated set of open-source models behind its OpenAI-compatible inference APIs.

Model families

Family	Best for
Qwen 3.5/3.6 A range of model sizes with vision, tool calling, and optional thinking.	General-purpose applications, from free prototyping to demanding agentic workloads.
Kimi K2.7 Code A coding-specialized model with always-on thinking.	Long-horizon software engineering, repository work, and coding agents.
GLM 5.2 A flagship model designed for long-context, long-horizon tasks.	Large codebases, research, complex tool use, and sustained agent workflows.
GLM 5.3 Always-on reasoning with native Low, High, and Max effort levels.	Text and tool-calling workflows that need control over reasoning effort.
DeepSeek V4.1 Flash A text model with optional thinking and native Low, High, and Max effort levels.	Coding agents, large document collections, and reasoning tasks.

Exact model identifiers, context limits, capabilities, and availability is available in the Mixlayer console or from the GET /v1/models API endpoint. Pricing is listed on the Pricing page.

Use a model

Pass a model identifier as the model field:

{
  "model": "model-identifier",
  "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
}

Choose the smallest model that meets your quality requirements. Evaluate candidates on representative prompts before selecting one for production.
