Released Apr 27, 2026262,144 context$0.32/M input tokens$3.20/M output tokens

Qwen3.6 27B is a dense 27-billion-parameter language model from the Qwen Team at Alibaba, released in April 2026. It features hybrid multimodal capabilities — accepting text, image, and video inputs — and supports a 262,144-token context window.

The model is designed for agentic coding and reasoning tasks, with particular strength in repository-level code comprehension, front-end development workflows, and multi-step problem solving. It includes a built-in thinking mode for extended reasoning and preserves thinking context across conversation history. Qwen3.6 27B supports 201 languages and dialects and is released under the Apache 2.0 license.

Sample code and API for Qwen3.6 27B

OpenRouter normalizes requests and responses across providers for you.

OpenRouter supports reasoning-enabled models that can show their step-by-step thinking process. Use the reasoning parameter in your request to enable reasoning, and access the reasoning_details array in the response to see the model's internal reasoning before the final answer. When continuing a conversation, preserve the complete reasoning_details when passing messages back to the model so it can continue reasoning from where it left off. Learn more about reasoning tokens.

In the examples below, the OpenRouter-specific headers are optional. Setting them allows your app to appear on the OpenRouter leaderboards.
