Qwen3.8-Omni: Towards Native Omni-Modal Agents

Qwen Team

We introduce Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash, a natively multimodal agentic model for real-world multimodal productivity. Compared with previous omni models, which primarily emphasized perception and interaction, Qwen3.8-Omni-Flash substantially improves multimodal understanding and reasoning, as well as performance on long-horizon agentic tasks. These capabilities are supported by a native multimodal co-training strategy that preserves strong text-domain capabilities while facilitating the transfer of agentic capabilities from text to audio and video tasks. The model inherits the sparse mixture-of-experts (MoE) architecture of Qwen3.8-Next and extends the context window to one million tokens, supporting long-context multimodal reasoning and long-horizon planning. These advances enable integration into production workflows as a primary agent or a specialized sub-agent, supporting video editing, long-form audio and video translation, music-conditioned music video or movie generation, and video-based note or omni-skill creation. To address the lack of native audio and video support in existing agent harnesses, we release Qwen-MM-Plugins, a lightweight open-source plugin framework for multimodal…
