Question 1

Does Kimi meet this task?

Accepted Answer

Unconfirmed; not recommended yet This month: CNY 49, 99, 199 or 699 a month, with annual passes sold separately: the 49 and 99 tiers fit, and the price is stated in CNY on the vendor page. Documented app distribution and file limits are narrower than a service-availability guarantee: Kimi has China and US App Store listings, the US listing names16 interface languages, and Projects permits 50 files at 100MB each with 2 projects and 500MB storage on Free. Researcher context is128K input+output(about60, 000–100, 000 Chinese characters). Features share a monthly credit pool. Code on new Plus-and-higher plans has a rolling5-hour usage limit and no weekly limit; legacy plans retain rolling and weekly limits, and Go does not include Code. These are documented limits, not tested registration, reachability or account allowance. The help page now states each tier annual total — Go CNY 468, Plus 948, Pro 1,908 and Max 6,708, with monthly equivalents 39/79/159/559 and a maximum saving of CNY 1,680 — and says the equivalent is not billed monthly, so the annual figures are cited here as annual totals, not as monthly prices. The China and US App Store records establish app distribution, not where the service permits registration or can be used. The materials read do not establish this task’s mainland-China service eligibility or a complete country list, and no account reachability test was performed.

Question 2

Does Doubao meet this task?

Accepted Answer

Unconfirmed; not recommended yet This month: Free tier, or CNY 68, 200 or 500 a month by continuous subscription as declared in its App Store entry: the 68 tier fits, but this is a store declaration rather than a checkout price. The China App Store record establishes app distribution, not mainland service eligibility. Doubao’s terms list web, apps, extensions, mini-programs and SDK/API; its privacy policy says domestic-operation personal data is stored in mainland China. This round could not read the Hong Kong storefront and establishes no US-store absence. The service-region policy and per-tier document allowance, file size/count and context for this task remain unconfirmed. Required file-reading conditions are unestablished, so the row stays unknown even though the CNY 68 tier fits the budget. The terms read here mainly address adults and permit under-18 use with guardian consent. They forbid using output as professional advice or for commercial purposes; an enterprise’s separate agreement may take precedence where the terms say so. The materials reviewed do not establish a complete service-region policy, including mainland China or Hong Kong. The Hong Kong store page was not readable in the recorded attempt; this proves neither a listing nor its absence, and storage location does not close that gap.

Question 3

Does Qianwen meet this task?

Accepted Answer

Unconfirmed; not recommended yet This month: The China iOS listing declares Work Assistant Advanced at CNY19, Elite at CNY49 and Flagship at CNY128 by continuous monthly subscription. The named19/49 SKUs fit CNY100 arithmetically and128 does not, but neither proves this task’s complete file entitlement or the lowest plan. The membership agreement makes actual price and benefits depend on the current product/checkout page. The China App Store developer description lists ten documents/images per upload and 500-page documents. Its Work Assistant monthly SKUs include Advanced CNY19, Elite CNY49 and Flagship CNY128; these do not establish the lowest or complete plan table. China-linked membership and user agreements are readable, but this task’s per-tier file allowance and service-region eligibility remain unconfirmed; the separate Singapore web terms returned only a shell. API-region rules must not be used to infer consumer-app availability. Do not read the API platform regional scopes as the consumer app availability: they are separate official surfaces. The China paid-membership agreement forbids opening a membership for profit or other non-personal use and makes quotas personal and non-transferable. Its app-linked user terms assign output rights, if any, to the user. These are different scopes; they do not establish blanket private/non-commercial restrictions on every generated output. The Singapore web terms remain unreadable in this round.

Question 4

Does DeepSeek meet this task?

Accepted Answer

Unconfirmed; not recommended yet This month: The US App Store declares the consumer assistant free; the separately metered API charges by model tokens. A different billing currency alone does not rule a workload in or out ofCNY100, and an API price does not establish this consumer document-reading workflow or its cost. The API documents1M-token context and maximum384K output; these are API limits, not consumer document-reading guarantees. The terms mainly address adults and allow minors with guardian consent, do not warrant availability in every jurisdiction, and allow features to vary. The privacy policy states personal-data storage inChina and anEU/UK representative; theUS App Store has a listing. None of those facts establishes the countries where your account can register or the complete mainland-China workflow. A vendor statement that availability is not guaranteed is not a country list, and it is not written up here as one. A paid consumer tier was not established in the materials read; theUS App Store declares a free assistant and the API documentation describes a separate token meter. This does not establish every market’s consumer pricing.
