Doubao Seed 2.0 Mini
budgetByteDance•Released on 2026-02-14
ByteDance's high-throughput lightweight model for cost-sensitive batch processing. At $0.03/M input, it's ~58x cheaper than GPT-5.2 and makes million-document pipelines feasible. Supports 30K RPM and 1.5M TPM. Best for content moderation, classification, and high-concurrency chatbots.
Voice of the community
sample 890“Seed 2.0 Mini makes million-document pipelines feasible. At less than $0.35 per million tokens combined, it's insane value for batch processing.”
“Mini scores significantly lower on Agent tasks. It's better suited as an execution end (handling simple instructions) rather than a decision-making end within an Agent system.”
“For high-throughput batch processing, content moderation, classification - Mini is the optimal choice. Volume over accuracy when you're processing millions of docs.”
