Qwen3.7-Plus is Alibaba's balanced, lower-cost Qwen model. It costs $0.40 per 1M input tokens and $1.60 per 1M output tokens for requests up to 256K input tokens, and more for requests between 256K and its 1M limit.
Qwen3.7-Plus costs $0.40 input / $1.60 output per 1M tokens when a request stays under 256K input tokens; above that, Alibaba charges three times as much on both input and output. Keep prompts under the 256K line to stay on the base rate.

Standard rates per 1M tokens from data on this site. The coding-agent row assumes 90% of input is read from the prompt cache (full input price where a model has no cache rate). Cache-write fees, batch discounts and long-context surcharges listed in the notes are not included. Updated November 2, 2026.

Qwen3.7-Plus has two price tiers, and the tier is set by the total input tokens in each request, not by your monthly usage. A request with 200K input tokens is billed entirely at $0.40 / $1.60; one with 300K input tokens is billed entirely at the long-context rate, three times higher, output included. For retrieval or document workloads, cap the retrieved context so requests stay below 256K: you'll usually lose little answer quality and pay a third of the long-context rate. Alibaba also labels its Singapore-region Qwen3.7-Plus prices as a limited-time 20% discount, so expect both tiers to rise when that ends.
Qwen3.7-Plus uses Model Studio's standard cache rules: implicit (automatic) cache hits are billed at 20% of the input price and explicit cache hits at 10%, which is the $0.04 in the table. Explicit cache creation costs 125% of input, the minimum cacheable prompt is 1,024 tokens, and an explicit cache lasts five minutes from its last hit. A chatbot that resends a long system prompt on every turn is a good fit for explicit caching.
Qwen3.7-Plus supports both thinking and non-thinking modes under the same ID, and Alibaba lists it for visual understanding as well as text. Use the alias qwen3.7-plus (currently the qwen3.7-plus-2026-05-26 snapshot) for the 1M-token free quota in the Singapore region, or pin the dated snapshot for stable production behavior. When a task needs the flagship, Qwen3.8-Max costs $2.00 / $6.00 with no long-context surcharge.
$0.40 per 1M input tokens and $1.60 per 1M output tokens for requests up to 256K input tokens. Requests from 256K to 1M input tokens are billed at three times those rates (see the notes in the table).
By the number of input tokens in each individual request. Every token in a request over 256K input tokens, including the output, is billed at the higher tier.
Alibaba's model list includes qwen3.7-plus under visual understanding as well as text generation.
Yes, 1M tokens for the qwen3.7-plus alias in the Singapore region, valid for 90 days. Dated snapshots don't include a free quota.
