Baidu Intl — Partner Program

Partner Program

API partner program with complimentary credits and long-term reference rates across LLM, image/video generation, and VOD capabilities — plus short-drama content partnership models for overseas media partners.

Partner Offer

Complimentary credits on qualified onboarding, plus long-term partner reference rates

$50
LLM API Credit
USD 50 complimentary credit for eligible LLM API usage across supported models — general reasoning, coding, multimodal understanding, and enterprise language workloads. Activation, validity, and limits confirmed during onboarding.
$50
Image & Video API Credit
USD 50 complimentary credit for image and video generation API usage — text/image-to-image, text/image-to-video, reference video, audio, and editing workflows.
01
What the Program Covers
Three product families: LLM models (billed per 1K tokens, input/output/cache separate), image & video generation (per image, second, clip, or token by model), and VOD atomic capabilities — subtitle removal/translation, voice translation, highlights, enhancement, watermarking (per processed minute or task). Model usage and VOD infrastructure billed separately.
02
Rate Interpretation
A rate shown as 60% of list means the partner rate is 60% OF the published list price (not a 60% discount). These are ongoing commercial reference rates, not one-time promotions — final eligibility, quotas, and contract terms confirmed in the partner order form or written confirmation.

Short Drama Content Partnership

Three cooperation models for overseas content partners — distribution via Baidu App, Haokan Video, and Youmanju apps

M1
Finished-Content Distribution
Publish finished dramas and earn from day one: revenue = profitable views × unit price × type/theme × copyright × series × featured-book coefficients. Profitable views generate revenue immediately; single-title payout cap RMB 80,000; premium titles stack coefficients up to 2.47x. Collections must complete within 90 days; episodes ≥40s average duration for incentive eligibility.
M2
IP Adaptation Matchmaking
Access 200,000+ short stories and 100,000+ long-form IP from the platform copyright mall — adapt selected titles into drama collections and share revenue. Featured book lists (e.g. Jianghu Qitan) carry a 1.2x revenue multiplier. Must tag as matchmaking adaptations and link the source book; cross-platform releases require post-publication association.
M3
Joint Production
50/50 co-funding with shared copyright and 50/50 net revenue split; Baidu platform premiere, partner handles global distribution; monthly settlement statements. Entry bar: 2 hit titles within the last 3 months — Hongguo heat > 40M or Douyin plays > 60M, realistic-human type. Submit script + pilot episode for evaluation; feedback within 2 business days.
!
Language Requirements
Chinese dialogue + English subtitles: accepted. English dialogue + Chinese subtitles: NOT accepted — English-audio content cannot pass platform review. Other Chinese-language regional content: case-by-case with published sample required. Accepted types: 2D/3D animation, AI live-action drama, animated sticker drama, game drama, AI-restyled; static narrated slideshows not accepted.
