Kimi.ai announced on X what it calls “Kimi K2.7 Code HighSpeed,” a faster mode for its latest open-source multimodal coding model. In the post, the company claimed the mode can run “up to 6× faster,” with roughly 180 tok/s on coding tasks with median-length inputs and up to 260 tok/s on shorter-context tasks.

The rollout, according to the post, is limited for now to Kimi Code Beta Program members, Kimi API developers and Kimi Business users, with access constrained by “capacity constraints.” The company also claimed that anyone who joins the beta program has a chance to get access without an invite, while continuing to expand availability as capacity grows.
