Image generation models – Wan

For the training workflow, see Fine-tune image generation models. After training completes, deploy the new model before calling it.

Method

Billed by training tokens

Formula

Model training fee = Total training tokens × Training unit price (Billing unit: per 1,000 tokens)

Formula for total training tokens

Training Tokens Total ≈ max_steps × LstepWhere:
  • max_steps: A hyperparameter specified during training, representing the maximum number of training steps (configured when creating a fine-tuning job).
  • Lstep: The token consumption per step. The formula is: Lstep = ∑i∈batch Litem(i) ≤ Lmax Lstep is approximately equal to Lmax. Lmax is determined by the max_token_length and generation_type, as shown below:

Suppose you fine-tune the wan2.7-image-pro model for t2i. The parameters are: max_steps = 200, max_token_length = "1k", and the training price is CNY 0.08 per 1,000 tokens:
  • From the table: Lmax = 12,800 (generation_type=t2i, max_token_length=1k), Lstep ≈ Lmax = 12,800
  • Total training tokens ≈ 200 × 12800 = 2560000 = 2560 thousand tokens
  • Model training fee ≈ 2560 × 0.08 = CNY 204.8

Image generation models – Qwen

For the training workflow, see Fine-tune image generation models. After training completes, deploy the new model before calling it.

Method

Billed by training tokens

Formula

Model training fee = Total training tokens × Training unit price (Billing unit: per 1,000 tokens)

Formula for total training tokens

Total training tokens = n_epochs × N × (max_pixels / Compression ratio) × GPU coefficientWhere:
  • n_epochs: A hyperparameter specified during training, representing the number of training epochs (configured when creating a fine-tuning job).
  • N: The total number of images in the training set.
  • max_pixels: A hyperparameter specified during training, representing the maximum number of pixels per image (configured when creating a fine-tuning job). Valid values are 1k (1024×1024) and 2k (2048×2048).
  • Compression ratio: The fixed VAE compression ratio, which is 1024 (32×32).
  • GPU coefficient: A resource scheduling coefficient that is dynamically adjusted based on job scheduling.

Suppose you fine-tune the qwen-image-2.0 model with a training set of 1 image. The parameters are: n_epochs = 1000, max_pixels = "1k", the training price is CNY 0.02 per 1,000 tokens, and the GPU coefficient is 8:
  • Tokens per image = max_pixels / Compression ratio = 1024×1024 / 1024 = 1024
  • Total training tokens = 1000 × 1 × 1024 × 8 = 8192000 = 8192 thousand tokens
  • Model training fee = 8192 × 0.02 = CNY 163.84
The following table estimates token consumption and fees per training image, assuming a GPU coefficient of 8. For a training set of N images, multiply the values by N.

  • The GPU coefficient is dynamically adjusted based on job scheduling. The value 8 in the example and the table above is used only to illustrate the calculation. For actual token consumption, see the usage field returned by the Query a fine-tuning job operation. Your bill is the final authority on fees.
  • batch_size does not affect billing or the total training tokens.

Video generation models – Wan

For the training workflow, see Fine-tuning video generation models. After training completes, deploy the new model before calling it.

Method

Billed by training tokens

Formula

Model training fee = Total training tokens × Training unit price (Billing unit: per 1,000 tokens)

Formula for total training tokens

Training Tokens Total = (∑i=1N billing duration of videoi) × (max_pixels / 1024) × n_epochsWhere:
  • N: Total number of videos in the training set.
  • max_pixels: A hyperparameter specified during training, representing the maximum number of pixels for a video (configured when creating a fine-tuning job).
  • n_epochs: A hyperparameter specified during training, representing the number of loops (configured when creating a fine-tuning job).
    • The conversion between n_epochs and steps is: steps = n_epochs × ⌈dataset_size / batch_size⌉, i.e., n_epochs = steps / ⌈dataset_size / batch_size⌉.
    • When the dataset contains only 1 sample and batch_size = 1, n_epochs = steps. We recommend a total of at least 800 steps.
  • Billing duration calculation rule for a single video: First, round the original video duration (in seconds) to the nearest integer, then determine the final value based on model limits.
    • wan2.7 model: Billing duration=min(10, rounded duration), meaning a single video is billed for a maximum of 10 seconds.
    • wan2.5 model: Billing duration=min(10, rounded duration), meaning a single video is billed for a maximum of 10 seconds.
    • wan2.2 model: Billing duration=min(5, rounded duration), meaning a single video is billed for a maximum of 5 seconds.

  • Total training tokens = 10 × (36864 / 1024) × 800 = 288,000 = 288 thousand tokens
  • Model training fee = 288 × 2 = CNY 576

  1. wan2.7-i2v cost estimation (multiple data)
Assume a training set contains 2 videos with durations of 3.4 seconds and 11.5 seconds. Parameters: max_pixels = 36864, n_epochs = 800. Training unit price = CNY 2/thousand tokens:
  • Duration calculation:
    • Video 1: 3.4 seconds is rounded to 3. Billable duration = min(10, 3) = 3.
    • Video 2: 11.5 seconds is rounded to 11. Billable duration = min(10, 11) = 10.
    • Total billable duration = 3 + 10 = 13 seconds.
  • Total training tokens = 13 × (36864/1024) × 800 = 374,400 = 374.4 thousand tokens.
  • Model training fee = 374.4 × 2 = CNY 748.8.

Speech synthesis models – CosyVoice

CosyVoice model fine-tuning is available only in the China (Beijing) region. For the training workflow, see Fine-tune CosyVoice. After training completes, deploy the new model before calling it.

Method

Billed by tokens consumed during training

Unit price

CNY 0.2 per 1,000 tokens

Formula

Model training fee = Total consumed tokens × Training unit price

Formula for total consumed tokens

The token consumption of a single job is estimated as follows:Consumed tokens = (lm_max_epoch + fm_max_epoch) × 25 × Training set duration (s)Where lm_max_epoch and fm_max_epoch are hyperparameters set when creating the fine-tuning job, representing the number of LM and FM training epochs. The training set duration is the total duration in seconds of all audio files in the fine-tuning dataset. Increasing either epoch count or enlarging the training set increases token consumption linearly.

Deployment billing

Text generation models: Qwen

  • Billing by usage duration (Provisioned Throughput)
  • Billing by usage duration (Dedicated Throughput)
  • By model token usage
  • Billing by usage duration (Model Unit)
Fee = Usage duration × (Input TPM unit price × Input TPM + Output TPM unit price × Output TPM)Post-paid is calculated hourly: the usage duration unit is hours, and the unit price is taken from the "Continuous 1 hour" column in the table below; prepaid is calculated daily: the usage duration unit is days, and the unit price is taken from the "Continuous 1 day" column in the table below.
  • Prepaid orders take effect in real time after payment, with a validity period of N days ending at 23:59 on day N. If the order is placed after 22:00, the expiration date will be automatically extended by 1 day.
  • After a prepaid order expires, the service will be stopped with a 2-hour delay, and resources will be retained for 14 hours after the stop and then released.
  • Prepaid orders support early termination; the used portion is settled at a 1.2x coefficient for refund. For details, see Refund rules for configuration downgrades.
  • For post-paid billing, if the account is in arrears, the deployed resources will continue to be retained and billed for 24 hours, during which the service can still be used normally. After 24 hours, the system stops billing, the model deployment enters an arrears state, and the underlying resources will be deleted, but the model deployment task will be retained. After the arrears are paid, the system will reallocate resources and restore usage (fees will continue to accrue after restoration). If you do not want to continue incurring fees, you can delete the model deployment task, and billing will stop after successful deletion.
When the model input exceeds the maximum input Token, the relevant call will automatically switch to the pay-as-you-go mode of the current model; when the purchased TPM is exceeded, it is handled according to the overflow strategy selected at creation ("auto-overflow" switches to pay-as-you-go, "use-only-PTU-capacity" returns 429). At this time, inference performance may degrade and will be subject to the public traffic control of the current snapshot model in the business space, and fees will be charged according to the model invocation (pay-as-you-go) standard.
  • In this case (only under the "auto-overflow" strategy), the API response Header will include: x-dashscope-ptu-overflow:true.
  • For TPM statistics, go to: Model Monitoring (Beijing).
For the specific fee reduction and refund rules in scale-down (downgrade) scenarios, please refer to: Refund rules for configuration downgrades.
PTU deployment supports long-input tiered capacity coefficients and cache discounts; see Provisioned Throughput long input and caching for details.
