Kimi Master Course
A complete 156-lesson journey from absolute beginner to professional AI engineer covering every Kimi feature: long-context chat (200K+ tokens), document analysis (PDFs, Word, Excel, images), web search with citations, file uploads, the Kimi API (OpenAI-compatible), multi-model orchestration, enterprise deployment, and industry-specific applications across legal, healthcare, finance, education, and 15+ other domains.
What This Course Is
Kimi is a long-context AI assistant developed by Moonshot AI, available at kimi.com and via mobile apps. Where most chatbots lose the thread after a few thousand words, Kimi is engineered to hold an entire novel, codebase, or research dossier in working memory and answer questions about it without forgetting earlier sections. That single capability — a context window that scales to roughly 200,000 tokens in the consumer product — is why Kimi has become a serious tool for students, researchers, lawyers, developers, and analysts who cannot fit their work into the smaller windows of competing chatbots.
This course takes you from "I just typed my first Kimi prompt" all the way to "I architect production AI systems that orchestrate Kimi with other models, handle compliance, and serve enterprise scale." Every lesson is original, in-depth, and written to help you build real, transferable skills. Each lesson explains why the topic matters, walks through how it works, gives a real-world example, surfaces common mistakes, and ends with an exercise plus an optional professional challenge.
The curriculum tracks Kimi's current state as of August 2026: the Kimi web app, mobile app, WeChat mini-program, Kimi API (OpenAI-compatible, with streaming and function calling), Moonshot AI's developer platform, fine-tuning options, and enterprise features including SSO, audit logs, and compliance certifications.
