Doubao Work has expanded its platform by integrating third-party AI models, allowing users to switch between proprietary and external options. The initial list of third-party models includes Kimi K3.1 Pro, GLM 5.3, and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, joining the existing Doubao 2.1 Lite and 2.1 Pro models.
The platform introduced a usage-based billing mechanism that utilizes AI points. To manage costs, Doubao Work displays a consumption multiplier for each model on the selection interface. This coefficient indicates the rate at which AI points are deducted for specific tasks, helping users balance performance and expenses.
The integration of third-party models was initially made available to team and enterprise subscribers on October 29. As of November 12, this capability has been extended to a broader user base, accompanied by a new limited-time promotional program.
The current promotion includes discounts on model usage during specific time slots on weekdays and holidays. Additionally, the platform has reduced the consumption multipliers for Doubao 2.1 Lite and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash, which are optimized for high-frequency, lightweight office tasks.
