Qwen3 VL 235B A22B API in India

Qwen3 VL 235B A22B Instruct is Alibaba's large vision-language model, live on unoblox as qwen/qwen3-vl-235b-a22b-instruct. It reads images alongside text, supports tool calling, and bills in rupees with a GST invoice.

What Qwen3 VL 235B A22B is

This is the instruction-tuned version of Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B, a mixture-of-experts model with 235 billion total and 22 billion active parameters. It handles interleaved text, images and video in Alibaba's design, and unoblox exposes text and image input with text output over a 262,144-token context. Alibaba highlights OCR across 32 languages, including difficult conditions such as blur or tilt, and the ability to read GUI screenshots and plan actions.

It is an Instruct model, so it answers directly rather than producing a separate reasoning trace.

Where it fits

• Document OCR and extraction from scans, forms and invoices.
• Screenshot understanding for UI testing and support tooling.
• Chart and diagram Q&A combined with written questions.

Use it when vision is the main need. For a model with reasoning plus vision, look at Qwen3.5 397B A17B. For text-only work, a text model is usually cheaper.

Notes on parameters, billing and data

Use max_tokens for output limits. Send images as image_url content parts, either HTTPS URLs or base64 data URLs. The model runs at an external provider and not in India, so we claim no data residency. Check any document you process against your own privacy obligations before sending it.
