Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
GPT-5 Pro supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
OpenAI
GPT-5 Pro is an extended-reasoning variant from the GPT-5 family that applies more compute per response for deeper, more thorough answers on complex problems. It features the same 400K token context window and multimodal capabilities as GPT-5, with additional reasoning depth suited to research-grade analysis, advanced coding, and tasks requiring comprehensive, accurate outputs.
Alibaba / Qwen
Qwen3 Coder Next is a coding-specialized open-weight model from Alibaba's Qwen3 family, built on the Qwen3-Next architecture with hybrid attention and Mixture-of-Experts design optimized for local development and agentic coding workflows. It targets on-device and self-hosted deployments requiring a capable coding agent that can operate within consumer hardware constraints.
