Ant Group
Ant Ling is Ant Group's LLM platform. The English homepage positions it as efficient, intelligent and secure, with high-performance models for text, multimodal and coding. The model family includes Ling for general-purpose MoE language models, Ring for deep reasoning and coding-agent workflows, and Ming for full-modal text, image, audio and video understanding and generation. The developer docs expose OpenAI-compatible and Anthropic-compatible APIs, streaming, structured outputs, vision, voice, OpenRouter and ZenMux access, and integrations for OpenClaw, Claude Code, Kilo Code and Hermes Agent.
