Ring

Ring is Ant Ling's reasoning model line. The docs describe Ring as an open-source trillion-parameter thinking model that uses Ling's MoE architecture and activates about 63B parameters per inference. It is designed for real-world Agent workflows, coding agents, tool use and long-horizon task execution. Ring-2.6-1T introduces adjustable reasoning effort levels, high and xhigh, for production-default agent workflows and more difficult math, research and complex analysis tasks. The docs also note OpenRouter early access for Ring-2.6-1T and API availability for Ring-2.5-1T.

Editorial verdict

Best for

Teams comparing Chinese reasoning and coding-agent models for tool orchestration, repository work and long-horizon autonomous execution.

Avoid if

Avoid assuming Ring-2.6-1T is production API-ready until console availability and billing are verified.

Why it matters

Ring has a coding-agent and tool-use profile that fits AI Coding better than the generic Ant Ling entry.

Pricing

Ring-2.5-1T pricing: ¥4.00 input / ¥8.00 output per 1M tokens; Ring-2.6-1T has limited-time free OpenRouter access until May 15, 2026

Payment

OpenRouter early access, Ant Ling API billing, Personal Alipay account recharge

Commercial use

Commercial use should follow the current product, API, model license and billing terms.

Privacy
