Streaming — Real-time token streaming via SSE
Strong reasoning — Ideal for complex multi-step tasks

Quick Example

curl https://ai.alad.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "doubao-seed-1-6-vision-250815",
    "messages": [
      { "role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum entanglement in simple terms." }
    ]
  }'

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://ai.alad.com/v1"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="doubao-seed-1-6-vision-250815",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum entanglement in simple terms."}
    ]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="YOUR_API_KEY",
    base_url="https://ai.alad.com/v1"
)

stream = client.chat.completions.create(
