Chutes (SN64) Becomes Launch Partner for Tencent’s New Hy4 AI Model

Chutes (SN64), Bittensor’s leading decentralized AI inference subnet, has partnered with Tencent Cloud as a launch partner for Hy4, the latest flagship model from Tencent Hunyuan.

Released on November 4, 2026, Hy4 is now available through Chutes, giving developers access to its advanced reasoning, visual understanding, and computer-use capabilities.

Hy4 is the first model in Tencent’s Hunyuan series to support native vision and computer use.

It can interpret images, screenshots, complex charts, and other visual information while operating software through command-line and graphical interfaces.

Tencent also trained the model to handle professional applications such as Blender and CAD, allowing it to perform more complex tasks across multiple applications.

The model uses a mixture-of-experts architecture with approximately 770 billion parameters, of which 49 billion are active per token.

It also supports a context window of around one million tokens, making it suitable for processing large documents, codebases, and extended workflows.

Tencent reports strong results across coding, financial analysis, office productivity, and scientific research, although many of these evaluations are company-reported.

On Chutes, Hy4 is available as tencent/Hy4, priced at $0.525 per million input tokens, $1.5625 per million output tokens, and $0.025 per million cached input tokens.

These rates are below Tencent’s published standard API pricing. Developers can access the model through Chutes’ OpenAI-compatible API without changing their existing integration beyond the model selection.

Chutes operates on Bittensor Subnet 64, where independent miners provide GPU resources to serve AI models through a decentralized infrastructure. Its growing catalog includes models from DeepSeek, Qwen, GLM, and other major AI developers.

The partnership strengthens Chutes’ position as an inference provider connecting major AI model releases with Bittensor’s decentralized compute network. With competitive pricing and access to Tencent’s latest model, Chutes continues to demonstrate why day-one access to leading AI models is becoming business as usual on Bittensor.
