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.

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:

1 {
2   "model": "model-identifier",
3   "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
4 }

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