## IDs & aliases

| Send as `model` | What it is |
| - | - |
| `qwen-3.8-max-novita` | Canonical gateway id |
| `claude-air-qwen-3.8-max-novita` | Claude Code picker id |

Every alias resolves at the gateway and is disclosed back as `requestedModelAlias` in usage metadata. Routing variants also apply: `qwen-3.8-max-novita:nitro` picks the fastest provider serving these weights and `qwen-3.8-max-novita:floor` the cheapest ([details](/models#provider-routing-variants)).

## Same weights, other providers

This id pins a specific serving route of [Qwen 3.8 Max](/models/catalog/qwen-3.8-max) (`qwen-3.8-max`).

| Model id | Served by | Pricing |

| [`qwen-3.8-max-deepinfra`](/models/catalog/qwen-3.8-max-deepinfra) | DeepInfra | \$1.65 in / \$4.95 out per 1M tokens |

Same weights, different machines: speed, time to first token and cache behavior are the serving provider's. The unsuffixed id is the default we picked for reliability; pick a suffix when you need a specific provider's [data-handling terms](https://privacy.aireserve.com/data-handling).
