The Dark Side of the Moon is negotiating K3 revenue sharing with Microsoft, Amazon, and Google, with a maximum cut of 30%. According to Reuters, The Dark Side of the Moon, which is currently sprinting toward its IPO, is in talks with Microsoft, Amazon, and Google. They hope these U.S. cloud giants will host their Kimi K3 model, with a maximum demand of taking 30% of revenue from K3-related services. If the deal goes through, this would mark the first heavyweight revenue-sharing agreement between a Chinese AI company and U.S. cloud computing giants. Insiders reveal that unresolved issues in the negotiations include how to split the revenue, data access permissions, and how to audit token usage. Previously, The Dark Side of the Moon denied claims that K3's performance was derived from "distilling" Anthropic's model, stating that it was the result of original improvements to the underlying architecture. K3 has shown strong performance in multiple third-party evaluations, ranking first in webpage construction capability tests on http://Arena.ai. Artificial Analysis has even stated that its performance rivals GPT-5.5.
