Ling 3.0 Flash VL is a multimodal model from inclusionAI that accepts text, image, and video input and returns text. It offers a 131,072-token context window with up to 32,768 output tokens per response, enough for long documents, image sets, or video-derived inputs alongside detailed answers. The model supports tool calling and a reasoning mode. The listing does not specify structured output support or whether the weights are openly available, so teams that depend on either should confirm before building around them. At $0.06 per million input tokens and $0.18 per million output tokens, it sits at the low end of paid pricing. That makes it worth shortlisting for high-volume visual or video workloads where cost per call matters most. It has no independent benchmark coverage yet, so its quality is unproven. Run your own evaluations against established alternatives before committing production traffic.
