How to choose
- Benchmark against a comparable model from a larger vendor before committing production traffic — line-ups this size get less independent testing.
- Start with LongCat 2.0 at $0.3 / $1.2 per 1M tokens; it is the cheapest entry point here.
- Check the context window against your longest input — the largest here is LongCat 2.0 at 1.05M tokens.
- Confirm support terms and deprecation policy, which smaller vendors document less thoroughly.
