Reasoning Reasoning

QwQ is the reasoning model of the Qwen series. Compared with conventional instruction-tuned models, QwQ, which is capable of thinking and reasoning, can achieve significantly enhanced performance in downstream tasks, especially hard problems. , DeepSeek-R1, o1-mini.

What it's best for

Best for multi-step problems where the model benefits from working through its chain of thought: maths, analysis, planning and agentic loops. Reasoning models produce (and bill for) more output tokens than plain chat models, so use them where the extra thinking pays for itself.

Billing is metered per request in GBP on the same monthly invoice as your apps — no subscription, no minimum. We list every model once, at the cheapest route we can serve it on; if we have to fail over to a more expensive route, we absorb the difference and your price does not change.

Where your data is processed

Requests to QwQ 32B are routed to a vetted partner provider and processed on that provider's infrastructure — they leave our infrastructure, and the UK-residency guarantee that applies to our UK-hosted models does not apply here. We hold the provider credentials server-side and route on cost and availability. If you need prompts that never leave our own infrastructure, use one of our UK-hosted models.
