How Kimi K3 performed

Kimi K3 by Fireworks took the PomBench AI coding benchmark: every model gets the same prompt and writes self-contained browser code for a twelve-second scene: a Pomeranian runs across a backyard, jumps a puddle, enters its doghouse, retrieves a bone and turns toward the viewer. The video above is an independent offline browser recording of the code Kimi K3 returned, captured at 960 × 540 and 30 fps, with no organizer edits to the code.

In this Kimi K3 coding test the model produced 22,590 output tokens, including provider-reported reasoning (rank 8 of 46 by output tokens), and the known API cost was $0.3452 (rank 38 of 45, cheapest first). Is Kimi K3 good at coding? One task cannot answer that on its own, so this LLM coding benchmark lets you watch the result instead of reading a score: check the gait, the puddle jump and reflection, the doorway occlusion and whether the bone stays in the dog's mouth.

Kimi K3 code

Kimi K3 wrote its own native browser animation code from the same prompt as every other model. One execution repair is available for empty, truncated or unexecutable code; the final response is kept, not a best-of selection.
