How this price is scoped: Limited-time discounted price, and the only price Meituan prints: $0.30 uncached input / $0.006 cached input / $1.20 output per 1M tokens. The rate card has a single 'Discounted Price (limited-time)' column and no list price, so no list price is shown here; expect a change when the discount ends. USD is first-party on longcat.ai (international edition); the China edition prices it in CNY (¥2 / ¥0.04 / ¥8), not an FX conversion. Self-serve sign-up and prepaid top-up, no approval step.

Price receipt

Partial receipt. We read Meituan's own pricing page on , and every price above is printed on it — for each one, LongCat-2.5 is the nearest model name on the page and no other model we track sits closer. What that capture does not give us is an entry for this model we can parse, so the match rests on where the numbers sit on the page rather than on a row we could read end to end. We keep the page text we read; its content hash is d88cb9e345. Check the provider's page before relying on it.

Overview

Meituan LongCat-2.5, generally available on the LongCat API Platform since 2026-11-02 and the only model on its pay-as-you-go plan. It succeeds LongCat-2.0 and adds native multimodality: visual understanding combined with agentic coding for visual coding, design and 3D tasks, long-horizon multi-step agents, and a Responses API alongside the OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible endpoints. 1M-token context window with up to 256K output tokens. A LongCat-2.5-Preview opened on 2026-09-25. Unlike LongCat-2.0, no LongCat-2.5 weights are on Meituan's Hugging Face page.
