Qwen: Qwen2.5 VL 72B Instruct
🇨🇳 Qwen (Alibaba) · Qwen2.5 VL
Overview
Qwen: Qwen2.5 VL 72B Instruct is a large language model API from Qwen (Alibaba), part of its Qwen2.5 VL model family. At $0.250 per million input tokens and $0.750 per million output tokens, it sits in the budget tier — among the cheaper options for high-throughput or cost-sensitive workloads. Output tokens cost about 3× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. The 131K-token context window — around 197 pages of text — comfortably handles long documents, multi-file code, or extended conversations. Beyond plain text it also accepts Image input, so it can be applied to multimodal tasks rather than text alone. All prices on this page reflect OpenRouter's routed rates and are re-synced automatically every day; confirm against the provider's official pricing before committing to production.
