Qwen3.5 35B-A3B

qwen3.5-35b-a3b

Qwen3.5 35B A3B is a native vision-language MoE model designed to approximate much larger model behavior with a smaller active footprint. Model cards describe hybrid linear attention, sparse experts, and comparable results to larger Qwen3.5 dense variants. The strongest positioning is efficient multimodal reasoning and coding without the cost of always activating a large dense model.

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B Model Highlights

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B combines an efficient sparse MoE design, native multimodal understanding and open-weight deployment for adaptable applications.

Sparse MoE Efficiency

The model has 35 billion total parameters with 3 billion activated, combining Gated DeltaNet attention with sparse experts for efficient inference.

Native Multimodality

A unified vision-language foundation processes text, images and video for reasoning, document understanding and visual tasks.

Open-Weight Deployment

Official weights under Apache 2.0 support self-managed inference with frameworks including Transformers, vLLM and SGLang.

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B Use Cases

Qwen3.5-35B-A3B is suited to self-hosted multimodal assistants, visual document processing and adaptable coding workflows.

Private Multimodal Assistant

Deploy the open weights in controlled infrastructure to answer questions over internal text, images and videos.

Visual Document Processing

Read text, tables and diagrams from document images, extract relevant fields and generate structured summaries.

Coding Workflows

Generate and revise code, investigate defects and integrate the model into self-managed developer tools or agents.
