Kimi-maker Moonshot AI targets $2 billion in annual revenue
Moonshot AI targets $2 billion annualized revenue by year-end on K3 open-weight demand; Anthropic alleges Kimi routed ~300,000 requests to Claude Opus.
Bloomberg reported that Moonshot AI is targeting $2 billion in annualized revenue by the end of 2026, double its August run rate, driven by its open-weight K3 model. OpenRouter data shows up to 300 billion tokens generated per day by K3 models, though usage has slipped slightly in recent months. Moonshot's projection remains far below reported figures for OpenAI ($40B) and Anthropic ($65B), with lower margins due to freely available weights. Anthropic this week alleged Kimi routed nearly 300,000 requests to Claude Opus and collected more than 23 million responses for use in Moonshot's training.
