Seed 2.1 Pro

Released Jun 24, 2026 see all recent releases

Decision reading
Seed 2.1 Pro is tracked, but not publicly ranked yet. The profile exposes 11 sourced benchmark rows and leaves unsupported fields blank until a published record exists.

Data as of September 10, 2026 · How the score is built

Strongest published evidence

Published rows are visible, but no category has enough eligible evidence for a comparative rank.

Validate before choosing

11 published rows leave some tracked benchmark slots empty. No comparable first-party API token rate is published.

Decision snapshot

Each value carries a field reference instead of floating alone. Markers compare this model with the current ranked and priced catalog; they are not absolute quality thresholds.

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Coding opens by default. The marker compares each value with the best source-verified result in the catalog; provisional leaders do not set the reference. Expand the remaining categories for every published row.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. A successor's displayed score stays at least 0.1 points above its predecessor; raw benchmark rows do not move. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track Seed 2.1 Pro, but the public leaderboard excludes this profile until enough non-generated benchmark coverage is available. Only published rows appear above.

Seed 2.1 Pro is a proprietary model with a 256K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Served through Volcano Engine and Volcano Ark as doubao-seed-2-1-pro-260628 with a 256K context window, 256K maximum output, deep thinking, multimodal understanding, GUI task processing, tool calling, and structured output. Volcengine publishes first-party CNY pricing only.

Official exact-value snapshot from ByteDance Seed’s Seed 2.1 model page (June 24, 2026 release at the Volcano Engine FORCE conference). BenchLM maps only the rows with an exact compatible lane: SuperGPQA, Terminal-Bench 2.1 (mirrored in coding and agentic), NL2Repo, MathVision, MMMU-Pro, ZEROBench, BabyVision, CharXiv-RQ, ERQA, and VideoMME, using the no-tool value where ByteDance prints a with-tool variant in parentheses. KINA, BeyondAIME, Workspace Bench, Agent Startup Bench, xDailyBench, ProgramBench, SWE-Atlas, WorldVQA, MMLongBench-128K, TOMATO, Minerva, OVOBench, and VideoSimpleQA stay outside the schema. Every row is provider-run, so the model stays out of weighted ranking.

Seed 2.1 Pro sits in the Seed 2.1 family with Seed 2.1 Turbo. Its explicit predecessor is Seed-2.0-Lite. 11 of 434 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Frequently asked questions

How does Seed 2.1 Pro perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Seed 2.1 Pro has 11 source-displayable benchmark rows, but it does not qualify for a public overall rank. The available rows remain visible by category without being converted into a site-wide score. Missing evidence stays blank instead of being estimated from an earlier model.

Is Seed 2.1 Pro good for knowledge and understanding?

Seed 2.1 Pro has source-displayable benchmark coverage for knowledge and understanding, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Seed 2.1 Pro good for coding and programming?

Seed 2.1 Pro has source-displayable benchmark coverage for coding and programming, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Seed 2.1 Pro good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

Seed 2.1 Pro has source-displayable benchmark coverage for agentic tool use and computer tasks, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Is Seed 2.1 Pro good for multimodal and grounded tasks?

Seed 2.1 Pro has source-displayable benchmark coverage for multimodal and grounded tasks, but the public category table does not assign it a rank there. The individual rows remain available for inspection. A missing category position means the evidence threshold was not met; it does not convert the model's unmeasured work into a zero.

Which sibling models are related to Seed 2.1 Pro?

Seed 2.1 Pro belongs to the Seed 2.1 family. Related tracked variants include Seed 2.1 Turbo. A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Seed 2.1 Pro have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Seed 2.1 Pro currently has 11 source-displayable rows across 434 tracked benchmark slots. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Seed 2.1 Pro?

Seed 2.1 Pro has a documented context window of 256K. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
