Moonshot targets $2B from open-weight K3

Moonshot AI is targeting $2 billion in annualized revenue by year-end after its open-weight K3 model reached as many as 300 billion tokens a day, TechCrunch reports. The target is still a forecast, but it gives open-weight economics a harder test: Moonshot is chasing monetization while closed-model rivals reportedly run at much larger revenue scales; OpenRouter’s K3 activity page is the usage gauge behind the token figure. Builders tracking Chinese models should file this as a distribution signal, not a margin proof, alongside the archive’s analysis of open-weight adoption and acquisition capital.
