Kimi

Use it to work through a long document, image or difficult question in conversation.

Best for

A large amount of material that needs several rounds of questions.

Real example

Compare a long technical specification with screenshots from the existing system.

Start with

First list what the material says, what is missing and what you need to ask me before recommending anything.

Where you make it better

More material can contain more mistakes too; open the pages behind important claims.

Keeps researching in the background and returns a longer report with sources.

Best for

An investigation that should end in a report, not a quick answer.

Real example

Research a new market and produce a competitor map with source links.

Start with

Show the research questions, rules for including sources and planned source types before starting.

Where you make it better

Open the important sources and check why evidence was included or left out.

Works through a request and produces websites, slides, documents, spreadsheets or reports.

Best for

When you need files rather than another chat reply.

Real example

Turn a product brief and research folder into a microsite and launch plan.

Start with

List the files you will produce and stop after the outline for approval.

Where you make it better

Review every file and define what finished means before the agent begins.

Asks several AI researchers to investigate different parts of the same job at once.

Best for

Research covering many similar items, where each item can be searched separately.

Real example

Compare thirty suppliers using the same fields and source rules.

Start with

Run five suppliers first and show missing information or inconsistent results before continuing.

Where you make it better

Manually check a sample and track credit use; more agents do not guarantee better answers.

Creates, edits and converts Word, PDF and Excel files while keeping the result editable.

Best for

Turning mixed office files into a clean document or spreadsheet.

Real example

Convert survey PDFs into a report and coded Excel workbook.

Start with

List information that may be lost or changed, then show the spreadsheet columns before creating files.

Where you make it better

Check formulas, totals, formatting and a sample against the original files.

Creates presentations using source material and visual references.

Best for

A first presentation draft that needs both structure and design direction.

Real example

Create an investor update using monthly data and an approved brand deck.

Start with

Show the narrative and source for each slide before generating the presentation.

Where you make it better

Own the argument, check numbers and refine the visual hierarchy.

Produces runnable sites and interactive experiences from a brief.

Best for

Rapidly prototyping an idea or internal tool.

Real example

Build a responsive quote calculator from a pricing spreadsheet.

Start with

Implement one complete user journey with realistic data before adding features.

Where you make it better

Review security, accessibility, data handling and maintainability before deployment.

Works inside folders you choose, browses the web, runs Python and can repeat a task on a schedule.

Best for

A longer job using files that are already organised on your computer.

Real example

Monitor a research folder and produce a weekly change report.

Start with

List only the approved folder. Ask before creating, changing, uploading or deleting anything.

Where you make it better

Give it access only to the folder it needs and keep a backup.

A coding agent available in terminal and IDE workflows, with repository tools and sub-agents.

Best for

Exploring, changing and testing large software projects.

Real example

Refactor a cross-cutting feature while preserving the existing test contract.

Start with

Read the repository instructions, map the dependency path and run the current tests before editing.

Where you make it better

Review diffs, tool permissions and production deployment.

Lets developers add Kimi models to their own app.

Best for

A product that needs to analyse long files, understand images or call approved tools.

Real example

Analyse long technical files inside an internal review tool.

Start with

Return the same named fields every time and check them before another system acts.

Where you make it better

Set privacy rules, spending limits, error handling and a non-AI fallback.
