Alibaba Group Holding has teased preview versions of its next flagship artificial intelligence model, as the tech giant sharpens its AI operations and ramps up spending.

The new model previews, the Qwen3.7-Max-Preview and the Qwen3.7-Plus-Preview, ranked 13th globally in text capabilities and 16th in vision capabilities, respectively, benchmark firm LM Arena said on Tuesday.

The versions overtake other Chinese AI labs in several areas, making them the top Chinese AI models of the moment, based on Arena’s rankings. The preview models still trail behind top US products, including Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s GPT models.

Alibaba’s proprietary Qwen3.7 preview models come a month after the company launched its previous flagship Qwen3.6 series. The Chinese AI and e-commerce giant, which owns the South China Morning Post, has not revealed details of the upcoming Qwen3.7 series models, though it has teased the launch of a major new model at the Alibaba Cloud Summit in the eastern city of Hangzhou on Wednesday.
