I run Qwen3.5-plus through Alibaba’s coding plan (Model Studio): incredibly cheap, pretty fast, and decent. I can’t compare it to the highest released weight one though.
Yeah that's the one. I've not managed to get close to the limits that the cheapest plan has. Though I did get to sign up at $3 a month which has been neat, too, seems that's gone now
I also want to try Qwen 3.5 plus. I have a doubt, I see almost same pricing for both Qwen and Claude code(the difference being the highest pro plan looks cheaper), and not for the lower plans. Am I missing something, when you say “cheaper” ??
I'm using their $3 USD (currently, it will go up in price later I believe - edit: just checked and yeah, so the $10 one) lite plan, and I'm yet to get close to hitting the request limits when I swap to it once I'm out of Claude tokens.
