Batch processing

The pricing guide multiplies cost for multiple images. That does not establish a separate asynchronous Batch API or discounted batch processing.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.

Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Classification inferred from the release-specific hosted/commercial offering, contrasted with BFL’s separately named public-weight releases and current official weight inventory. Paid access alone is not the criterion. No exact public checkpoint for this included release is present in the reviewed inventory; this is dated evidence, not a perpetual licensing claim.
