For a limited time, everyone can use Kimi K3 completely FREE on https://t.co/sPxe5UH6Nk.
Free access starts at:

For that window, anyone can visit Zyloo.io and use Kimi K3 without paying. Zyloo says a notification will appear on the site when the model becomes free.
When Kimi K3 Goes Free
The event begins at the following local times:
- China: 12:00 AM
- Japan: 1:00 AM
- Central Europe: 5:00 PM
- United Kingdom: 4:00 PM
- New York: 11:00 AM
- Los Angeles: 8:00 AM
The free-access period lasts for seven hours, which means the U.S. window runs from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM Eastern, 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Central, and 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM Pacific.
Why This One Is Worth Watching
Kimi K3 launched on July 16 as Moonshot AI’s new flagship model. It is a 2.8-trillion-parameter model with native vision and a 1-million-token context window, built for coding, long-horizon reasoning, research, document work, and agentic workflows.

That makes this seven-hour promotion more useful than a typical free-trial coupon. It gives people a concentrated window to test a newly released frontier model on real workloads without first committing to API spend.
A few good ways to use the window:
- Test Kimi K3 against a real coding task or repository
- Feed it a large document set and evaluate its 1-million-token context window
- Compare its answers with another frontier model on the same prompts
- Try a research workflow that requires browsing, synthesis, and structured output
- Run it through an agentic workflow and see how reliably it follows tools and multi-step instructions
Moonshot AI has been moving quickly on coding models in particular. Its previous release, Kimi-K2.7-Code, arrived as an open-source coding model with a 256K context window and reduced reasoning-token usage.
Because the clock is strict, it is worth preparing prompts and files in advance. Seven hours can disappear quickly once the model starts chewing through a large project.
How to Access It
Visit Zyloo.io during the event window. Zyloo says the site will display a notification when Kimi K3 becomes free.
The offer is temporary and ends after seven hours, so this is very much a set-the-alarm situation.
Thanks to Jacoby Coffin for the tip that put this event on my radar.
