| Free tier | 个人标准版·Free: free; a one-time grant of 5,000 points on first registration, valid 7 days; code completion free; when the grant is spent the CLI falls back to an Auto free mode with a daily limit whose number is not published unit credits; metered on request-count; points are spent as tokens times the model's unit price, so request-count is the nearest metered_on term. A second render of the pricing page states the first-registration gift as CNY 10 of model quota instead of 5,000 points. Pro is CNY 59 a month on comate.baidu.com with 25,000 points a month and an Auto-Free fallback of 150k tokens an hour once points run out; the Baidu Cloud price list states Pro at CNY 70 a month, CNY 210 a quarter or CNY 840 a year. Max is CNY 199 a month with 100,000 points and 500k tokens an hour. |
|---|---|

| Limits |
|
| Binding | request-rate the one-time grant lasts 7 days, after which only the unnumbered daily Auto free mode remains on the free plan; on Pro the 150k tokens an hour fallback binds once the monthly points are spent |
| Identity | country-phone Comate signs in with a Baidu account or a license; a Baidu account is created with a mobile number, and sign-in through WeChat, Weibo, QQ, GitHub or Gitee re-verifies and binds a mobile number for account real-name rules. The default Baidu registration form has no calling-code selector; the overseas registration form lists mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, US/Canada, UK, Switzerland, Norway, Russia/Kazakhstan, Japan, India and other countries, and names no EU member state. Baidu's help centre states that mobile numbers from outside mainland China register a Baidu account through four product lines (Baidu public cloud, Haokan, Xiaodu speaker, Apollo), that the account then works on other Baidu products, and that EU member-state numbers are not supported; whether such an account signs in to Comate (IDE plugin or ComateCLI device-code login), receives the first-registration grant, and whether the Comate login popup lists the overseas calling codes are unverified behind a sign-up. Paid plans on comate.baidu.com are paid with Alipay |
| Egress | not applicable |
| Interface | cli ComateCLI (comatecli) runs as a TUI or headless with comatecli run -q, writes the result to stdout and exits 0 or 1; -d task-json gives structured output. Login is a device code (comatecli login, --no-browser on SSH) or a license passed per command with -l. IDE plugins and a Comate IDE are the other surfaces |
| Tooling | ComateCLI from npm (npm i -g @comate/comatecli, Node.js 20.10 or later); IDE plugins |
| Composes with | the Auto free mode keeps the CLI usable after the 7-day grant, and the official model list (DeepSeek, GLM, Kimi, MiniMax) is billed in points at per-token prices, so the free plan is a fallback leg rather than a primary agent quota |
| Reliability | the vendor cut Pro's unlimited fallback model to 150k tokens an hour from 2026-07-01 |
| Notes | Official models listed on the model price page: DeepSeek-V3.1, V3.2-exp, V4.1-Flash, V4-Flash and V4-Pro; GLM-4.7, 5 Turbo, 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.3 Flash; Kimi K2.5, K2.6, K3 and K3.1 Pro; MiniMax M2.5, M2.7 and M3. At the ECB rates of 2026-10-29 (1.1130 USD and 7.4144 CNY per EUR, so 6.6616 CNY per USD), Pro is about USD 8.86 at CNY 59 and USD 10.51 at CNY 70. A third-party tracker reads the Auto-Free fallback as a paid-plan benefit only; the CLI documentation states a daily-limited Auto free mode after the gift runs out. |
| Evidence note | documented the prices, the point grants, the fallback rates, the headless CLI and the mobile-number requirement are quoted from first-party pages read. Whether a non-Chinese mobile number registers today and the size of the free Auto mode's daily limit sit behind a sign-up and are unverified. |

| Free tier | Two separate pools, which is the interesting part: (1) Notebook persistent workspace — verbatim 'Notebook每个用户提供 100G 的云端持久化存储空间作为个人工作区,访问路径为 /home/aistudio/work' (100 GB per user, persisted in real time); (2) Datasets — '单个文件大小要小于50GB,一个数据集最多可上传50G数据内容' (single file under 50 GB, one dataset holds at most 50 GB of content). So 100 GB standing + 50 GB per dataset, and datasets are a separately-created object, not a folder in the workspace. unit GB; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits | 50 GB per file, 50 GB per dataset, 100 GB persistent workspace. Notebook main file (.ipynb) capped at 10 MB for preview purposes. Free GPU is 12 h/day with an 8-point/day sign-in economy, but compute is irrelevant here. Dataset uploads above 150 MB must go through the dataset path rather than direct project upload. No documented retention/expiry on datasets. |
| Identity | country-phone email + any-phone, but the platform is China-facing and prior rounds recorded Chinese pans demanding +86 real-name verification and Alipay. Treat as country-phone until a registration attempt proves otherwise. |
| Egress | Free for public datasets — downloads are anonymous HTTP from Baidu's CDN with no egress line and no per-GB charge anywhere in the docs. No metered-egress surface exists because AI Studio is not a cloud-storage product with a billing meter. |
| Per-object cap | 50 GB per file (50000000000 bytes) |
| Retention | not stated |
| Interface | s3-compatible, rest, git, rclone, cli rest |
| Tooling | First-party pip package aistudio-sdk: aistudio upload --repo-type {model,dataset} --include ... --max-workers N with a User Access Token from aistudio.baidu.com/account/accessToken. Also git+LFS, and a web uploader. Python SDK + CLI both documented. No rclone backend, no S3 API. |
| Composes with | This is the multiplier case §1 describes: 50 GB is per DATASET, and the quota field explicitly separates the 100 GB workspace from dataset storage. N datasets x 50 GB is the intended pattern (people mount several datasets into one project simultaneously — Q21 '添加数据集' shows multiple datasets attached to a single project). 20 TiB = ~410 datasets. |
| Reliability | Datasets are mutable (versions exist — '生成新版本'). Notebook containers are recycled when idle and have a forced maximum lifetime, but /home/aistudio/work is described as real-time persistent, so the workspace is the durable part. Heavily China-network-oriented; download speeds from outside CN are untested here. |

| Notes | This is one consolidated finding rather than five because the decision is the same and the door is the same: national identity. Two corrections worth carrying: JD's free period shrank from 6 months to 15 days, and Tencent's corporate requirement blocks an individual without a company. The 180-day Baidu figure is the largest in the group and still fails on identity. An account with a Chinese national ID would find a real 2 vCPU class trial here. |

| Composes with | 480 V100-hours a month is the largest recurring GPU allowance found anywhere and it exceeds Kaggle's by a factor of nearly four; it composes with nothing here because the door is a mainland real-name account. |
| Reliability | no reliability event recorded |
| Notes | 480 hours a month is 16 x 30, arithmetic on the published daily grant. Two open items: the official page does not state how long the daily 8 points stay valid (one forum post says 24 hours, unverified), and the weekly ceiling in the levelling table (48 hours a week at bronze) may bind before the daily grant does at low account levels. |

| Free tier | 300 GB after a mobile-client login; 100 GB on registration alone: '用户注册即有100G云空间,在手机客户端登录则升级为300G' unit GiB; metered on stored-bytes |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits | |
| Binding | per-ip-shaping 300 GB free, and 0.1 MB/s is 8.6 GB a day, so the throttle binds first: 1 TB takes 116 days of continuous reading. |
| Identity | country-phone a Baidu account; the default registration form takes a mainland China mobile number, and Baidu's help centre states that a mobile number from outside mainland China registers a Baidu account through four product lines, that the account then works on other Baidu products, and that EU member-state numbers are not supported; whether the Baidu Pan client signs in with such an account is unverified behind a sign-up. The open platform adds a developer app on top |
| Egress | Metered by throttle rather than by byte: non-member downloads are capped around 0.1 MB/s and anything sizeable needs the desktop or mobile client |
| Per-object cap | 1 GB per file on the web uploader, 4 GB on the desktop client, 10 GB on VIP and 20 GB on SVIP (1000000000 bytes) |
| Retention | Trash holds deleted files for 10 days. The free allowance was cut from 2 TB to 100 GB in 2020 for accounts not logged in for two years |
| Interface | rest |
| Tooling | an official open platform with OAuth 2.0 at pan.baidu.com/union/doc, for example GET /api/quota with an access token returning total, free and used in bytes; the OpenList BaiduNetdisk driver; a Baidu developer app is required |
| Composes with | 300 GB per Baidu account and Baidu accounts need a phone number. At 0.1 MB/s the non-member throttle makes even 500 GB a day impossible, so the read path fails independently of the quota |
| Reliability | Content scanning applies even to private files: matching files become unreadable for the uploader too. The free tier is effectively read-only at serving scale. The guest share path gets further than expected and then stops: /share/verify returns errno 0 with a randsk cookie and the page renders the real file tree, but /share/list answers errno 2 and every byte path needs BDUSS |
| Notes | Two findings: the 2 TB to 100 GB cut, and the anonymous share path. The anonymous path proves that the share metadata is public and the bytes are not, which is the pattern the whole topic is built on. |

| Reliability | The 'unlimited' claim is 2024 marketing for the enterprise RAG tier and does not survive contact with the docs: the same help centre says the shared-storage path 'supports 小规模文件导入' (small-scale import), and the unlimited path runs through user-owned BOS which is billed. Baidu Cloud registration requires a phone number. Treat as a documented-name entry, not a qualifying provider. |
