With the rapid iteration of large model technology, term service has become a key point in the application of technology. On October 23, the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute of the China Academy of Information and Communication Technology, the Key Laboratory of Artificial Intelligence Large Model and Software and Hardware Evaluation of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the China Artificial Intelligence Industry Development Alliance jointly released the “Big Model Word Element Service Performance Monitoring Report”. The report shows that the volume and price of the word element service are rising sharply. The price of the word in China doubled compared to the second half of last year, but the increase in volume reached 3 times. In June 2026, the average daily consumption of domestic vocabulary was about 500 trillion dollars, nearly four times that of December 2025. More and more model-as-a-service platform vendors are supplying large model token services through public cloud APIs, and users lack an intuitive basis for judging the performance of the word element service and face difficulties in selecting models, which is the background of this report. After experiencing the price war of the past two years, domestic and foreign model service prices rose markedly in 2026: the average normalized price rose from 6.8 yuan in the second half of 2025 to 13.46 yuan this year, an increase of nearly doubling; however, foreign prices are still significantly higher than domestic prices. The average normalized price of typical models released since 2026 is about 117.8 yuan.
