Kimi is Moonshot AI’s chat product for long documents, files, search, coding, and research workflows. In 2026, the platform’s main technical focus moved to Kimi K2.6, a model built for coding, agent tasks, visual analysis, documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.
Use Kimi when you need a browser-based assistant: ask questions, summarize material, compare sources, and work with long text. If you are looking for the model, API, or agent-building angle, see the dedicated Kimi K2 card.
What Kimi can do
- analyze long texts, documents, and user-provided material
- help with search, summaries, and source comparison
- write and explain code, including debugging tasks
- act as a general assistant for study, research, and work
- use the newer Kimi model family, including Kimi K2.6
When to choose it
Choose Kimi when you need a quick AI chat for reading, analysis, and content preparation. For model comparison, LM Arena is useful; for API and agent workflows, Kimi K2.6 is the stronger entry point.
