Official "New-user free quota" doc verbatim: from 0:00 on 2025-10-24, after you visit the Qianfan large model platform and read and agree to the user agreement, the system automatically activates the Qianfan large model platform and issues the new-user free Tokens quota; the new-user free quota can only offset Tokens consumed by online inference of preset model services, and cannot offset batch inference. The official issuance table has 17 items, each granting 1 million Tokens, valid for 3 months: ERNIE-4.5-Turbo-128K, ERNIE-4.5-Turbo-32K, ERNIE-4.5-Turbo-VL, ERNIE-X1-Turbo-32K, DeepSeek-R1, DeepSeek-R1-250528, DeepSeek-V3-250324, DeepSeek-V3.1-250821, DeepSeek-V3.1-Think-250821, Kimi-K2-Instruct, Qwen3-235B-A22B-Instruct-2507, Qwen3-30B-A3B-Instruct-2507, Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct, Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct, bge-large-en, bge-large-zh, qianfan-sug-8k. Remaining quota can be viewed on the model version details page in the Qianfan console Model Square and in the billing details column.
The official doc page is marked "Updated: 2025-11-17", nearly 11 months ago; the page is still online with no takedown notice, but the model list reflects the end-of-2025 basis (older versions such as DeepSeek V3.1 and Qwen3), and the banner at the top of the page is already promoting ERNIE 5.1 / 5.0, so the models you can actually claim are as shown in the console. Secondhand sources mention a 20 RMB voucher after real-name verification and free calls of the ERNIE-Speed / Lite / Tiny series; no original wording was found on the official page above, so they are not counted. From 2026-07 Baidu AI Cloud also launched a Token Plan personal-edition subscription (paid), which is a separate matter from this free quota.
