ERRORS

Errors & fallback routing

Code	What it means	What to do
`401`	Missing or invalid API key.	Send `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_LLMAPI_KEY` and check the key is active.
`429`	Rate limited, or the upstream provider is throttling the request.	Back off and retry with jitter; the gateway also retries the request on another provider where one is available.
`5xx`	Upstream provider error or timeout.	Retry; fallback routing sends the retry to the next healthy provider for this model.

When a provider fails or throttles, the request is routed to the next provider serving this model — the ones listed in the providers table above.

When to Use — When NOT to Use

Use it if...

You need a general-purpose text model for assistants, agents, or content workflows (Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct)
You need provider failover options exposed for this model id (Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct)
Your prompts benefit from the model's family strengths (reasoning, speed, or cost) (Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct)
You want OpenAI-compatible chat completions through a single LLM.API key (Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct)

Avoid if...

You require on-prem only deployment with no cloud inference
You need guaranteed real-time hard latency SLAs without benchmarking the provider
Your use case depends on unpublished proprietary benchmarks not listed here
You need pure embedding, OCR, or media generation instead of chat

LLM API rating for Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct

★ 3.3/ 5.0LLM API rating

4.2Production adoptionStrong open-weight adoption

Reasoning & chat 3.3Coding 3.3Tool & function calling 4.3Long context 4.1

How is this rating calculated?

Every model gets a separate 1.0–5.0 score for each category it can be used in, so a model can rate high for coding and lower for vision. The score combines three parts:

Production adoption — 50%. How widely the model is actually used in production: provider traffic, LiteLLM and gateway usage, open-weight downloads and its LMArena rank. Proven, widely used models score highest.
Category benchmark — 30%. The public benchmark that matters for that category — the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index and LMArena Elo for reasoning, LMArena coding Elo for coding, image and document support plus vision Elo for vision, tool and JSON support for function calling, measured speed for voice.
Tooling & value — 20%. Context window, support for tools, structured outputs and streaming, and price compared with the category median.

Scores of 4.0 and above are shown in green, 3.0–3.9 in yellow, below 3.0 in red. When a model has no public data for a part, it gets a neutral value instead of an invented number.

A “Verified benchmark” mark (✓) means an independent lab — LMArena or Artificial Analysis — has actually tested that model, and the source figure is shown. Models without that mark are labelled “Estimated from published specs”: the score comes from the published context window, tool and schema support, price and adoption only, because no independent lab has tested them yet.

One exception: a brand-new top-tier model that scores very high on the independent benchmarks but has no usage history yet is rated on the benchmark (60%) and tooling & value (40%) alone, so a missing adoption figure can't hold it back. All inputs come from public sources and are refreshed weekly.

Adoption and benchmark inputs come from public sources — LMArena, Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index and published model specs. Updated weekly.

What developers say about Qwen models

LMArena—Speed92 tokens/sSources: LMArena, Artificial Analysis

Summarised from publicly published developer and community reviews of this model family. Opinions are the sources’, not LLM.API’s, and may not be specific to Qwen3 Coder 30B A3B Instruct.

Qwen is widely described as the strongest open-weight coding family, with reviewers testing whether local Qwen can replace hosted frontier assistants for agentic coding.
Benchmarks published by developer blogs show production-usable code and solid architectural reasoning, especially in the Coder variants.
The honest verdict in most write-ups: excellent value and privacy, still behind the top proprietary models on the hardest long-horizon tasks.
