Aion-2.0 vs Seed-2.0-Mini

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Aion-2.0 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 58 to 53. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Aion-2.0's sharpest advantage is in instruction following, where it averages 93 against 80. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is OpenBookQA, 75 to 57. Seed-2.0-Mini does hit back in multimodal & grounded, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

Aion-2.0 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $0.80 input / $1.60 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.10 input / $0.40 output per 1M tokens for Seed-2.0-Mini. That is roughly 4.0x on output cost alone. Seed-2.0-Mini gives you the larger context window at 256K, compared with 128K for Aion-2.0.

Quick Verdict

Pick Aion-2.0 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Seed-2.0-Mini only becomes the better choice if multimodal & grounded is the priority or you want the cheaper token bill.
