Model access

Baidu's current consumer product page identifies access to the latest Wenxin large model but does not publish a complete exact model-ID list for the free consumer plan. The plan should not be treated as including every Baidu API model or developer offering.

Usage notes

The service is free, but Baidu does not publish a complete current quota or rate-limit schedule for this plan on the reviewed consumer-facing pages. Some advanced functions or usage volumes may be subject to operational limits or energy-based in-app purchases.

Limitations

No verified public plan-comparison page was found specifying exact message, file, search, image, video, audio, or agent quotas. In-app energy packages are available separately, and availability of individual capabilities may vary by application version, account, region, or feature.

Pricing notes

Baidu announced that Wenxin Yiyan would become fully free from April 1, 2025. The current Wenxin consumer application is listed as free, although it also offers separately purchased in-app energy packages.
