Kimi K2 Thinking is the greatest AI model ever. Here’s why…
Kimi K2 Thinking is the best AI model I've ever used. In this video I go over why and show you how to build your own deep research app with it.

The app should: Tech Stack: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS v3, React Features: Accept research queries (e.g., "Compare Notion, Obsidian, and Roam Research") Display real-time thinking/reasoning as it happens Show all tool calls as they execute with arguments and results Display metrics (thinking tokens, tool calls, elapsed time, input/output tokens) Show final research report in markdown Tools: The model should have access to: web_search: Search the web for information (use Tavily API) analyze_data: Execute Python code for data analysis and visualization create_pdf_report: Generate professional PDF research reports UI Layout: Input area for research queries with 3 example prompts Metrics panel showing real-time stats Three-column layout showing: Thinking (left) | Tool Calls (middle) | Results (right) Each panel scrolls independently with 600px fixed height API: Use the Moonshot API (Kimi K2 Thinking model) with streaming responses Example Queries: "Research Notion, Obsidian, and Roam Research. Find pricing, create a comparison chart, and generate a PDF report." "Analyze the top 3 AI coding assistants. Research pricing and features, create visualizations, and export a PDF." "Research cloud storage providers. Find pricing tiers, calculate cost per GB, create a chart, and generate a PDF decision matrix."
