Venice Opens Private Kimi K3 Access, Offers $1,000 a Day in Free API Credits
Venice has made Moonshot's Kimi K3 available on its platform and is offering a free API key with $1,000 available each day for the next week, with access open to anyone.
Venice described the service as private and said it runs Kimi K3 itself rather than routing inference through Moonshot. It also said that when Kimi K3 is accessed through Moonshot, blocking comes from Moonshot's company filter rather than the underlying model, and that open models such as Kimi K3 can be run by other providers.
