Rohan Paul said that Sunra resells multimodal model calls at the manufacturer's original price

Rohan Paul stated on October 29, 2026 that Sunra has released the Sunra API, through which users can call all major image, video, audio, and 3D models with a single key, billed at each model vendor's own API prices on a pay-as-you-go basis, with no subscription fee and no markup. Rohan Paul also said that Seedance 2.5 is priced on Sunra at half of what two other gateways charge, and that this unified entry point also makes it easier to run A/B tests on models from Google, OpenAI, ByteDance, and Kling. At present, this claim appears only in Rohan Paul's account, and there is no independent evidence from Sunra officially or from other sources.

Miles summarizes the eight-step multimodal data cleaning solution for FDE at beauty companies

On October 28, 2026, Miles summarized an eight-step multimodal data cleaning solution for FDE implementation projects at beauty companies. The solution processes text, image, audio, and video data collected from Xiaohongshu, Douyin, WeChat Channels, and Weibo through eight steps: defining data specifications, preserving original content, mapping data relationships, multimodal normalization, conflict and quality cleaning, generating structured data, performing acceptance checks, and storing data by rules and versions. The original text emphasizes that cleaning results must not overwrite the original text, and that OCR, ASR, and model labels serve only as newly added results; when ASR and OCR values conflict, the original evidence is traced back, and if it cannot be confirmed, the item enters a pending-verification queue. This pipeline has also been organized into a general solution that can be reused in scenarios such as consumer goods insights, automotive word-of-mouth, restaurant site selection, and brand public opinion.

Zhang Changqing presents a report on generalized multimodal fusion technology at CNCC 2026

On October 21, 2026, Zhang Changqing of Tianjin University gave a talk titled "Generalized Multimodal Fusion Technology" at CNCC 2026, presenting the team's research on multimodal representation, dynamic trustworthy fusion, and the general-purpose prediction foundation model Fusion Anything Model (FAM). According to an October 28 report by Leiphone, its TMC method uses evidence theory to estimate uncertainty, raising crystal structure recognition accuracy from about 58%–59% to around 93.9%; FAM was tested on 18 real-world datasets, 12 modalities, and 11 types of prediction tasks, with average accuracy improving by about 6.9 percentage points over specialized fusion baselines. Currently, the content of this talk has been disclosed by a single source, with no subsequent developments.

The Flatkey gateway supports calling multimodal models in Codex and Claude Code via CLI

As a unified API gateway, Flatkey supports calling multimodal models in Codex and Claude Code via CLI. According to a report dated October 21, 2026, the gateway can call text models such as GPT, Claude, DeepSeek, GLM, and Kimi, as well as image and video models such as GPT Image and Seedance; users can access 100+ official models and 1,000+ tool APIs with a single Key, with costs consolidated into one bill. The report also states that its everyday prices are at least 20% lower than official pricing; during the October 19–23 promotion, GPT, GLM 5.2, Kimi K3, and DeepSeek are 40% off, Claude is 20% off, and Seedance 2.0 is 15% off. There are currently no subsequent developments.
