Overview

BytePlus, ByteDance's international cloud brand, gives new users free quotas across its ModelArk model platform and media services. Registration alone grants the quota — no manual claim. LLM inference gets 500K free tokens per model (over 10M tokens in total across models), image generation gets 200 free images per Seedream model, and video generation gets up to 2M video tokens on Seedance. The page also notes the free quota "does not expire, but is subject to change" and is available to eligible customers.

Free Tier Quotas & Limits

  • LLMs (ModelArk): 500K tokens per model — DeepSeek-V3.1, DeepSeek-R1, DeepSeek-V3, GPT-OSS-120B, Kimi-K2, ByteDance Seed-1.6, Seed-1.6-flash, and SkyLark-pro.
  • Image generation: 200 images free on ByteDance-Seedream-4.5, Seedream-4.0, and Seedream-3.0.
  • Video generation: 2M video tokens free on ByteDance-Seedance-1.0-pro.
  • Voice: SeedTTS text-to-speech 20,000 characters; SeedTTS voice replication 20,000 characters + 1 cloned voice; SeedASR speech-to-text 20 hours.
  • Media services: MediaLive free trial for 3 months (1TB traffic, 1,000 hours HD transcoding); Live free for 1 month (3,000 minutes watch time, 5GB media library); RTC 10,000 free minutes per month; Effect Platform trial via contact.
  • Free quota offsets pay-as-you-go online inference tokens only — not batch inference, plugins, knowledge bases, or context-cache storage fees. Quotas are per-model, shared across the primary account and its sub-accounts, and shared between base and fine-tuned models.
  • A "Free Tokens Only" mode suspends the service when the free quota runs out, so no charges are incurred unless you manually activate the paid service.
