What is the rate limit for qwen3.5-27b?

The current model record does not publish a numeric rate limit for qwen3.5-27b. Confirm the quota for your plan in the console, then run a short load test at your expected concurrency to establish the effective ceiling before production.

How are reasoning tokens billed on qwen3.5-27b?

Reasoning tokens are billed as output on qwen3.5-27b, at $2.4000 per 1,000,000 token. They are generated before the visible answer and count toward both latency and spend, so a higher reasoning setting costs more even when the final answer is short.

How does qwen3.5-27b compare with deepseek-v3-2-251201, and what should you compare?

qwen3.5-27b sits alongside deepseek-v3-2-251201 , deepseek-v3.2 , grok-4-0709 in the catalog. Compare them on the dimensions that change your bill and your users’ experience: task quality on your own prompts, latency at your concurrency, context and output limits, and cost per completed task rather than per token.

Does qwen3.5-27b have a free tier?

qwen3.5-27b is billed per use and the record publishes no free-tier allowance. The current published rates are input $0.3000 per 1M tokens and output $2.4000 per 1M tokens. Trial credit or promotional quota is tied to your account rather than to the model, so check the console before planning around a free tier.

Can you call qwen3.5-27b with the OpenAI SDK you already use?

Yes. qwen3.5-27b is reachable through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so an existing OpenAI SDK client works after pointing the base URL at MixRoute and setting the model parameter to qwen3.5-27b . Keep your current request and response handling.

Alibaba model that supports reasoning, tool calling and structured output. Knowledge cutoff: 2025-04. Released 2026-02-23.

Why use it through MixRoute?

qwen3.5-27b runs tools and structured output here

Tool calling and structured output run on that route as well. MixRoute serves qwen3.5-27b on the OpenAI-compatible endpoint /v1/chat/completions; point your existing client at https://api.mixroute.ai/v1 with the model ID qwen3.5-27b and re-run your integration tests.

Capabilities & compatibility

Unconfirmed capabilities stay "Unknown," no guesses

Tool calling

qwen3.5-27b supports function and tool calls.

EX Send a tools definition; the response returns tool_calls to execute and feed results back.

Structured output

qwen3.5-27b can produce JSON-formatted output on demand.

EX response_format: { type: "json_schema" } forces valid JSON output.

Streaming

qwen3.5-27b supports streamed responses.

EX stream: true streams tokens incrementally, so chat UIs render as they arrive.

Vision input

qwen3.5-27b can process image inputs alongside text.

EX Pass a base64-encoded image in a image_url content part alongside text messages.

OpenAI SDK

Call qwen3.5-27b through MixRoute's OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

EX Change base_url to https://api.mixroute.ai/v1; everything else follows the OpenAI style.
