Compared to the August preview, the official Hy4 has expanded pre-training and post-training scales, enhanced capabilities in programming, long-horizon agents, financial analysis, and for the first time added visual understanding and computer operation functions. Multiple evaluations released by Tencent show that its overall performance has entered the first echelon of open-source models. Hy4 can now operate computers by integrating screen content, mouse/keyboard inputs, and command lines to complete cross-software tasks. To this end, Tencent built a sandbox with hundreds of software deployed, allowing the model to practice repeatedly and verify results. In game development, GameDev and GameLogic evaluations improved by 19.1% and 9.8% respectively compared to the preview version. Hy4 also made new progress in scientific research tasks. Tencent said that Hy4 completed 3D reconstruction of a mouse embryo with nearly 7 million cells in 1.5 hours without human intervention; it can also independently locate performance bottlenecks in model training systems, increasing training throughput in internal tests by 20.1%. The official version maintains the API pricing of the preview. Standard API calls on Tencent Cloud are offered a limited-time 50% discount until December 31, while Token Plan subscriptions enjoy points consumption at 25% of the original rate until November 18. The model is now available on platforms including Tencent Cloud and OpenRouter, with its weights planned to be open-sourced soon.
