Kimi-maker Moonshot AI targets $2B in annual revenue

Moonshot AI aims to hit $2B in annualized revenue by year-end, double its August run rate, driven by its open-weight K3 model. OpenRouter shows K3 generating ~300B tokens daily. Anthropic this week accused Moonshot of distilling over 23M responses from Claude Opus via nearly 300K routed requests. Open-weight margins are thin, but Moonshot shows money can still be made—though OpenAI and Anthropic sit at $40B and $65B respectively.

Why it matters: Moonshot AI discloses a $2B annual revenue target with concrete K3 usage data (300B tokens/day on OpenRouter). Score stays at featured threshold because this is a target, not realized revenue, and the article doesn't give current actual revenue to validate the doubling claim.
