Data & enterprise terms

Vidu is the inference provider. The Beijing API region and 24-hour output-link lifetime do not establish inference data residency, input retention, training use or deletion policy.

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

Qualified closed-weight classification inference from Vidu native hosted model selectors and operator proprietary-service terms. Public MCP client source is not downloadable model weights. Exact checkpoint lineage remains unverified.
