Baidu launched a large model trading platform called Ciyuan

According to the Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, at the opening ceremony of Baidu World 2026, Baidu founder Robin Li stated that the iteration speed of models is very fast, with more than one new model released almost every day in the first nine months of this year. At the same time, the demand for model invocation has experienced a huge explosion, leading to the emergence of a batch of token transfer stations. To this end, Baidu launched the large model trading platform, Token Exchange.

Robin Li stated that Token Exchange is a marketplace for large models, aiming to gather high-quality models and model providers, allowing enterprises and even individuals to easily find, purchase, and use reliable model tokens. Since its launch a month ago, over 100 supply resources have settled in Token Exchange, with an average daily invocation exceeding 50 million times and an average daily token invocation surpassing 700 billion.
