Qwen3 30B A3B: later Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 and Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 editions shipped; this profile remains about the original hybrid model

The OnAirToday AI Progress Tracker recorded a verified change to Alibaba's Qwen3 30B A3B (version Qwen3-30B-A3B): Later Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507 and Qwen3-30B-A3B-Thinking-2507 editions shipped; this profile remains about the original hybrid model.

Alibaba’s Qwen3-30B-A3B is an open-weight, text-only mixture-of-experts model with 30.5 billion total parameters and 3.3 billion activated per token, supporting both thinking and non-thinking modes. Later Instruct-2507 and Thinking-2507 editions are available, but this profile covers the original hybrid model.

What changed in this review:

• Context is 32,768 tokens natively, extending to 131,072 with YaRN.
• Benchmark figures reflect Alibaba’s published thinking-mode results for the original checkpoint.
• API pricing requires a named hosting provider; the open-weight checkpoint has no universal per-token tariff.
• Flaws and limitations updated
• Risks and threats updated

Teams building on Qwen3 30B A3B should confirm limits, pricing and benchmark coverage against the vendor's own documentation before relying on these figures.

The full profile — capabilities, benchmark citations, known flaws and risk guidance — is on the tracker at /ai-models/qwen3-30b-a3b.
