Measured results are shown as published

Every score in the benchmark tables comes from its source unchanged. Composite IQ averages all seven dimensions equally.

Estimates fill the gaps

Abstract Reasoning, Computer Use and Knowledge Work have no published results yet, so their IQ is estimated from kimi-k2's other dimensions.

A missing result is not a zero

Benchmark versions and evaluation harnesses can differ between sources, so small gaps between models may not be meaningful.

How AI IQ scores models →Get this data from the API →
What is the IQ of kimi-k2?
kimi-k2 has an estimated IQ of 91, which ranks #159 out of 176 public models on the AI IQ leaderboard. The score combines seven equally weighted reasoning dimensions using measured benchmark results and conservative estimates for missing coverage.
What is kimi-k2 best at?
Among the dimensions with published benchmark results, kimi-k2 ranks highest in Mathematical Reasoning (IQ 105, #107 of 176) and Programmatic Reasoning (IQ 100, #122 of 177). Its lowest-ranked measured dimension is Reliability (IQ 99, #152 of 177).
What is the EQ of kimi-k2?
kimi-k2 doesn't have an EQ score yet. EQ (emotional reasoning) is calculated from EQ-Bench 4 and AttuneBench, and neither has published a result for kimi-k2. AI IQ doesn't estimate EQ from other benchmarks, so the score appears once one of those results is published.
Which benchmarks has kimi-k2 been tested on?
kimi-k2 has published results on 14 of the 39 benchmarks behind AI IQ's Composite IQ, including MathArena, AIME, AA Omniscience, GPQA Diamond and SimpleQA Verified.
How much does kimi-k2 cost?
kimi-k2 costs $0.57 per million input tokens and $2.30 per million output tokens. Adjusted for how many tokens it actually consumes on real tasks, its effective cost works out to $2.38 per million input-plus-output tokens.
Is kimi-k2 open source?
Yes — kimi-k2 is an open-weights model: its trained weights are published, so it can be downloaded and self-hosted.
Who developed kimi-k2?
kimi-k2 was developed by Kimi, based in China.
When was kimi-k2 released?
kimi-k2 was publicly released on July 11, 2025.
How large is the context window of kimi-k2?
AI IQ hasn't verified an input context limit for kimi-k2 from its developer's documentation, so none is listed rather than guessing.
How fast is kimi-k2?
In independent measurements, kimi-k2 generates about 46 tokens per second, with a typical response time of about 13 seconds.
