Qwen3.6-35B-A3B is a highly efficient open-source MoE model with 35B total and just 3B active parameters. It delivers frontier-level agentic coding and multimodal reasoning, rivaling much larger dense models. Apache 2.0 licensed and available now.
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B is the first open-weight release in the Qwen3.6 family.
A 35B total / 3B active MoE, Apache 2.0, strong agentic coding, native multimodal reasoning, and dual thinking / non-thinking modes is a very serious package for an open release. The efficiency story is also part of the hook here: this is a sparse model trying to compete far above its active size.
And importantly, the surrounding workflow is already there. @OpenClaw , @Claude Code , Qwen Code, API path, self-hosting path — this is positioned as something people can actually build with right away.

Who hunted Qwen3.6-35B-A3B?
Qwen3.6-35B-A3B was hunted by Zac Zuo. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
