Overview

Kimi K2.5 is a new 1 trillion parameter multimodal AI model that adds vision capabilities to the existing text-only K2 models. The key advancement is its self-directed agent swarm paradigm that can automatically orchestrate up to 100 sub-agents working in parallel to break down and execute complex tasks more efficiently.

The Breakdown

  • Adds native multimodal capabilities to the existing 1 trillion parameter K2 foundation - trained on 15T mixed visual and text tokens to handle both images and text
  • Implements self-directed agent swarm orchestration - automatically creates and manages up to 100 sub-agents executing parallel workflows across 1,500 tool calls without predefined agents or workflows
  • Achieves 4.5x faster execution times compared to single-agent setups by intelligently breaking down complex tasks for parallel processing
  • Demonstrates strong coding and vision integration - can generate SVG graphics and break down complex development projects into parallelizable tasks with dependency reasoning
  • Uses a modified MIT license requiring prominent display of ‘Kimi K2.5’ branding for commercial products with over 100M monthly users or $20M monthly revenue
