Moonshot says demand for Kimi K3 pushed its GPU capacity close to the limit, so new sign-ups are on hold for now.
Entities: Moonshot AI, Kimi K3
Kimi Moonshot said on X that demand for Kimi K3 over the past 48 hours pushed its GPU capacity close to the limit, prompting a temporary pause on new subscriptions while it prioritizes compute for existing paid users. The company said current subscribers are unaffected, that it is adding capacity and will reopen spots in batches, and that it plans to split access into two plans: Kimi Membership for its web, app and work products, and Kimi Code Membership for coding workflows.

Kimi is pausing new subscriptions due to extremely high demand, and will be splitting their plans into Kimi Membership and Kimi Code Membership.
Kimi K3 has received far more love than we expected, and our GPUs are feeling it. Over the past 48 hours, demand has pushed close to the limits of our current capacity. To protect the experience of existing subscribers, we're temporarily pausing new subscriptions and prioritizing compute for current members. Existing subscribed users are not affected. We're adding capacity as fast as we can and will reopen new subscription spots in batches. Going forward, we'll also split membership into two more focused plans: Kimi Membership for Kimi Web, App, and Work; and Kimi Code Membership for coding workflows. This will help us match compute more precisely and keep the experience stable. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
LOL.
extremely unprofessional. if kimi wants to make it as a frontier lab, they need to act like one: perhaps silently route people to worse models, and maybe write a blog post about the collapse of humanity https://twitter.com/kimi_moonshot/status/2078855608565207130

markets say “gpu demand is hitting a wall” companies say “hold my beer”
