Moonshot launches Kimi Hosted Agents, a managed round-the-clock runtime for business AI agents
Companies can run long tasks and multi-agent teams in isolated sandboxes with 140+ skills, 30+ plugins and eight finance templates, a day after Moonshot released Kimi K3.1 Pro weights.
Why it matters
A day after open-weighting Kimi K3.1 Pro, Moonshot is selling a hosted runtime so companies can keep agents running without managing GPUs themselves. The pitch is sandboxed long jobs, multi-agent teams and finance-ready templates on top of the new model. That moves Moonshot from a model drop into a product that competes with other managed agent platforms. Watch pricing, which customers go live, and whether the open weights still drive self-hosting instead.
