Seed language and speech, Seedance and Seedream generation, Seed3D assets, avatar and motion models, and Skylark embeddings.
67 reviewed records, including historical and research releases. Remaining model and detail coverage is under review.
Start with the job your model needs to do. Then narrow by capabilities, provider and price.
Compare every model with the same request.
Estimate = (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) / 1,000,000. Include conversation history in input and billed reasoning in output. Input-only decision models ignore the output setting; enter all billed input for one decision, including its question and criteria. Media, tools and discounts are separate.
