Everything you need to know about these AI models, including capabilities, performance, pricing, and technical details.
Kimi / Kimi K2.6
proDescription
Kimi K2.6 is Moonshot AI's open-weight model, grouped in the Pro tier on Aymo. Its standout feature is coordinating work across many sub-agents at once, aimed at long-horizon coding and multi-agent orchestration rather than quick, single-turn chat. It handles text, image, and video input natively, all built into one architecture from the start.
Anthropic / Claude Opus 4.8
maxDescription
Anthropic's flagship is built for work that other models get wrong. Opus 4.8 takes on the hardest coding, the deepest analysis, and writing that has to be right first time. It reads images and documents, holds a very large amount of context at once, and works through problems step by step so you can follow its logic. Slower and more expensive than lighter models, by design.

Why Use Kimi K2.6 and Claude Opus 4.8?
Aymo gives you more than access to individual models—it provides a complete multi-model AI workspace designed for productivity.
Kimi / Kimi K2.6
proLong Coding Sessions
Work through multi-file engineering tasks across several programming languages in sessions that stay coherent over many steps.
Multi-Agent Coordination
Scale a large task across many coordinated sub-agents working toward one goal, suited to big, parallelizable jobs.
Native Video Analysis
Share a video file and get analysis based on the actual footage, not just extracted frames or a transcript.
Video Content Generation
Generate video-style visual content like animated hero sections, going beyond static image output.
Parallel Research Tasks
Run several research threads at once through coordinated sub-agents, useful for broad, exploratory investigation.
Efficient Performance
Get strong coding results at a noticeably lower cost per response than comparable frontier models.
Anthropic / Claude Opus 4.8
maxCoding Assistance
Best-in-class. Handles large refactors, subtle bugs, and unfamiliar codebases. Built for the code that defeats lighter models, not routine changes.
Reasoning & Problem Solving
Best-in-class. Works through multi-step problems in the open, showing its reasoning as it goes. Strongest where the answer is not obvious.
Document & File Understanding
Best-in-class. A one-million-token context window, roughly 750,000 words. Load a full contract set, research folder, or codebase and ask questions across all of it.
Writing & Content Creation
Best-in-class. Professional output that needs editing rather than rewriting. Holds tone and structure across long pieces, up to 128,000 tokens in a single response.
Research & Analysis
Best-in-class. Reads dense, contradictory, or ambiguous material and forms a judgment. The strongest choice when the analysis itself is the hard part.
Multimodal Support
Text and images. Anthropic's documentation lists text and image input for all current Claude models. Audio and video input are not listed. Reads PDFs, spreadsheets, contracts, and code files.
