Qwen 3 Coder 480B is an LLM designed for advanced coding tasks, particularly those requiring the management of large codebases and agentic workflows.

It excels in handling long-context code understanding (with a native context length of 262,144 tokens), supporting complex, interconnected engineering tasks rather than just isolated code snippets. The model is structured as a Mixture of Experts, using a total of 480 billion parameters with 35 billion active per inference, enabling efficient and focused computation for challenging programming problems.

Some other noteworthy features of Qwen 3 Coder 480B include support for agentic coding (enabling multi-step, tool-using workflows) and agentic browser-use, which broadens its applicability for automated software engineering and research assistant scenarios.
