Xin Lang Cai Jing·2026-02-25 04:35Core Insights - Alibaba Cloud has announced the addition of four top programming models to its Coding Plan subscription service, allowing users to switch models without changing subscriptions or configurations [1][2] - The Coding Plan is currently offering promotional discounts for new users, with the first purchase at a 20% discount, where the first month's quota of 18,000 requests costs only 7.9 yuan, and 90,000 requests cost 39.9 yuan [1][2] Industry Context - AI Agents are the primary application carriers for large models, with popular tools like Claude Code and OpenClaw emerging in the market. However, these agents require complex task execution and multi-round planning, leading to an exponential increase in token consumption, with a single agent's computational consumption being 100 to 1,000 times that of traditional chatbots [2] - Alibaba Cloud's Coding Plan subscription service aims to provide a more cost-effective and flexible model service for users, addressing the high computational costs associated with AI Agents [2] - Previously, Alibaba Cloud launched the new Qwen3.5-Plus model, with API pricing as low as 0.8 yuan per million tokens, allowing users to access high performance comparable to Gemini 3 at less than 5% of the cost [2]
