Moonshot Pauses Kimi K3 Subscriptions Due to Compute Shortage, Splits into Two Tiers
Chinese AI startup Moonshot has temporarily suspended new subscriptions for its Kimi K3 model due to insufficient compute capacity, while existing users continue without restrictions. To balance cluster load, the company is splitting the single subscription into two tiers: Kimi Membership for web, mobile, and standard use cases, and Kimi Code Membership with dedicated resources for code generation and analysis. New customer access will resume as infrastructure scales.
