Baidu: ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B A47B

ERNIE 4.5 VL 424B from Baidu is designed for both text and image inputs with an extensive context length of 123,000 tokens, enabling sophisticated reasoning tasks. It supports complex reasoning but lacks structured output or tools integration, focusing on natural language processing and multimodal understanding. Given its price at $0.42 per million input tokens and $1.25 per million output tokens, this model is cost-effective for applications requiring extended context analysis and reasoning capabilities. However, with no independent benchmark coverage to date, its performance remains unproven in comparison studies, making it a solid choice primarily for those who can afford the price without needing detailed benchmark data.
