AI Knowledge Base Q&A Tools
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Alibaba Cloud Model Studio (Bailian) is a model-as-a-service platform from Alibaba Cloud that provides access to more than a hundred large models spanning text, image, audio, and video, including the Qwen and Wan families. It bundles model inference, dedicated throughput reservation, and model training and tuning, alongside an agent development toolchain with application templates, enterprise RAG knowledge bases, and visual workflow orchestration. Developers and enterprises use it to build assistants, retrieval-based Q&A, and multi-step automations, and can install a CLI to let AI agents schedule model capabilities. New users receive a dedicated free quota, and paid usage is billed through Token Plan subscriptions, savings plans, bundles, and resource packs, with per-token inference pricing documented for models such as Qwen3.8-Max and Qwen3.8-Flash.
Sign in to the Alibaba Cloud Model Studio console to access model experience, agent development, and billing pages.
Use the experience center to test text, image, vision, and video models such as Qwen3.8-Max and Wan3.0 before integrating them.
Create applications from templates, bind knowledge bases for retrieval-augmented answers, or orchestrate multi-step tasks with the visual workflow editor.
Obtain an API key from the console or through a Token Plan subscription, then install the CLI via Token Plan one-click setup or npm.
