Deployment Modes

Token-based deployment

A deployment mode billed by model token usage, supporting only LoRA fine-tuned models. Pay only for what you use. Suitable for post-tuning model validation and low-cost scenarios with low concurrency and latency requirements.

Overview

Billed by token usage (no usage, no charge), this mode supports only some LoRA efficient fine-tuned models. It is suitable for post-tuning model validation and low-cost scenarios with low concurrency and latency requirements. Throughput, concurrency, and generation speed are preset by the platform and cannot be adjusted.
The billing method cannot be changed after the service is created. To switch, you must take the deployed model offline and redeploy it. See Model deployment.

Billing rules

Fee = Model input token count × Model input unit price + Model output token count × Model output unit price (minimum billing unit: 1 token) Billing by model token usage is supported only after you complete efficient SFT training (that is, LoRA efficient fine-tuning; the plan parameter is set to lora for API deployment) on the following base models and obtain a custom model.

LoRA deployment

Token-based deployment supports only LoRA fine-tuned models. Set plan to lora when creating via API. The capacity parameter has no effect but is required; to scale, submit an application form on the Model Studio console. For the complete example of creating a deployment via API, see API deployment guide.

Scaling

For token-usage-based deployments, scaling requires submitting an application form on the console and waiting for manual review. Self-service scaling is not supported.

FAQ

A token-usage-based deployment is automatically released if not used within a month.
You can only release the existing resources and create new ones with the desired billing method. See Model deployment.
