What is the cheapest Baidu model?

ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B is the lowest blended-price option among tracked active non-embedding models, or among all models if only embeddings are listed: $0.42 input and $1.25 output per million tokens ($0.63 blended). Blended pricing uses 75% input and 25% output for generation models; your cheapest option may differ with your workload.

Which Baidu model has the highest AA Intelligence score?

No Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index results are currently listed for Baidu. Missing results do not establish that a model is worse than a scored model.

How do I calculate monthly Baidu API costs?

Multiply input tokens in millions by the input rate and add output tokens in millions multiplied by the output rate. For example, 20 million input and 5 million output tokens on ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B cost an estimated $15 at the listed rates. This excludes tool charges, cache-specific charges, taxes and any endpoint-specific adjustments.

Which Baidu model has the largest context window?

ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B has a listed context window of 123K tokens, the largest among tracked active Baidu models. Context capacity and maximum response length are separate limits; verify both on the model page and in the endpoint documentation.

What is the latest Baidu model in the catalog?

ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B has the most recent listed release date among tracked active Baidu models: 2025-06-30. Models without a usable release date are excluded from this comparison. Catalog release dates do not guarantee immediate API availability.

Do Baidu models support image inputs?

1 tracked active models list image inputs, including ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B. Accepting images does not mean a model generates images; check each model's separate input and output formats and endpoint limits.

Can prompt caching lower Baidu API costs?

No cached-input rates are currently listed for this provider's tracked models. Check endpoint documentation for caching eligibility and charges rather than assuming a discount.

Do Baidu models support tool calling?

Tool-calling capabilities are not currently listed for these models. Unlisted support is not the same as confirmed lack of support; check each model and the endpoint documentation.

How should I compare Baidu benchmark scores and prices?

Compare scores within the same evaluation: Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, DesignArena Elo, general Arena Elo and MMLU-Pro use different tasks and scales. Missing results are not zeroes. Pair a relevant measured benchmark with input/output pricing and tests of your own workload; the cheapest or highest-scoring model is not automatically the best fit.

Are retired Baidu models included in the price list?

The price list shows active models by default. Turn on Show retired models to include retired catalog entries, where available. A retained model page preserves reference information, not a promise that its API is still available.

Is Baidu an AI lab or an inference host?

Baidu is categorized as an inference host in this catalog. Hosts provide access to models; check each model page for its creator and listed endpoints.
