Qwen 3 VL 235B A22B is the large open vision-language model in the Qwen3-VL line. A vision encoder connects image and video content through an MLP bridge to the Qwen3 language model. Qwen highlights spatial understanding, video dynamics, and agent interaction. The sparse MoE activates 22 billion of 235 billion parameters.

This instruct checkpoint returns text and runs without Thinking mode. The model card describes Interleaved-MRoPE, DeepStack, and text-to-timestamp alignment for long videos and fine visual detail. Its native window is 262,144 tokens, and the weights use Apache-2.0.
