ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6
🇨🇳 ByteDance Seed · Seed 1.6
Overview
ByteDance Seed: Seed 1.6 is a large language model API from ByteDance Seed, part of its Seed 1.6 model family. Priced at $0.250 per million input tokens and $2.00 per million output tokens, it occupies the mid-range, balancing capability against running cost. Output tokens cost about 8× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. A large 262K-token context window (≈393 pages of text) lets it take in whole books, large codebases, or lengthy transcripts in a single call. Beyond plain text it also accepts Image, Video input, so it can be applied to multimodal tasks rather than text alone. All prices on this page reflect OpenRouter's routed rates and are re-synced automatically every day; confirm against the provider's official pricing before committing to production.
