StepFun releases 198B MoE vision-language model for agents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [6 sources] ·

StepFun has released Step 3.7 Flash, a 198 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts vision-language model designed for coding agents and search workflows. This new model features native multimodal understanding, improved tool-use reliability, and selectable reasoning depths to balance speed and computation. Step 3.7 Flash demonstrates significant performance gains on coding benchmarks like SWE-Bench Pro and offers an "Advisor Mode" that approaches Claude Opus 4.6 performance at a fraction of the cost. AI

IMPACT Sets a new benchmark for multimodal agentic coding performance and cost-efficiency, potentially influencing future agent development.

RANK_REASON New model release from a frontier lab (StepFun) with detailed technical specifications and benchmark results.
