Qwen3-Omni-30B

Alibaba · 30B-A3B (MoE)

The open option that genuinely unifies audio

Image, audio, video and text through one interface, with low 30B-A3B inference cost. The most realistic open starting point for omni prototypes, though 32K context forces chunking.

Bottom line

When speech and frames must go in together, Qwen3-Omni is about the only convenient open choice. For plain documents or GUI agents, Qwen3.5 or a dedicated VL model is better value.

Strengths and limitations

Strengths

  • Unified text/image/audio/video input, less glue code.
  • Apache-2.0 with few commercial restrictions.
  • Small active parameter count keeps inference affordable.

Limitations

  • 32K context hurts long video and long docs.
  • Chinese dialect ASR is average.
  • Complex chart reasoning trails flagship VLMs.

Price and real cost

List price

¥4/M tokens

Open; API ≈ ¥4 / 1M output. For 1,000 images at 1,024px, ~1,100 image tokens each and 300 output tokens, the monthly cost is about ¥2.4 (assuming input at 25% of output price).
