| Free tier | 体验版 (Free): free; a limited trial quota with a 2-week Pro trial and 300 Credits, and limited completions; when Credits are exhausted, a basic model with limited capabilities such as code completion unit credits; metered on request-count; Pro is CNY 59 a month or CNY 637.20 a year with 2,000 Credits a month; Pro+ CNY 169 with 6,000; Ultra CNY 559 with 20,000; a personal add-on pack is CNY 40 for 1,000 Credits, valid one month. At the ECB rates of 2026-10-29 (6.6616 CNY per USD), Pro is about USD 8.86 a month. The free Pro promotion ended on 2026-05-20 at 18:00 Beijing time. Credits are spent per request by mode (about 3 to 4 for Ask, 7 to 12 for Agent, 50 for Quest), so request-count is the nearest metered_on term. |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Limits | |
| Binding | request-rate after the 2-week trial the free plan has only a basic model for completion; the agent allowance is the paid monthly Credits, and buying them needs a real-name verified Alibaba Cloud account |
| Identity | national-id a personal account is an Alibaba Cloud account bound to a mobile number, signed in with an SMS code, and one is created at purchase if the number has none; Qoder CN personal sign-in uses an Alibaba Cloud China-site account, and the China site registers accounts with a mainland China mobile number (the international site, alibabacloud.com, is a separate account system with an email and a non-mainland number); Alibaba Cloud accounts must complete real-name verification before purchasing; on the China site individual verification runs through a real-name verified Alipay account (Alipay authorization, or a face scan with name and ID number), while the international site accepts a passport or driver's license issued by the account's country; a third party reports a passport and manual-review route for foreign individuals on the China site; whether qoder.cn registers a non-mainland mobile number, whether an international-site account signs in to Qoder CN, and whether the China-site flow takes a passport are unverified behind a sign-up; personal plans need the primary account, not a RAM user |
| Egress | not applicable |
| Interface | cli Qoder CN desktop, Qoder CN IDE, the JetBrains plugin, QoderWork CN and Qoder CN CLI share one Credits balance on a personal plan; the CLI runs headless with qodercn --print and prints text, JSON or stream JSON |
| Tooling | Qoder CN CLI (qodercn), Qoder CN desktop and IDE, the JetBrains plugin; the VS Code plugin is no longer developed |
| Composes with | a separate account system from Qoder International (coding-subs/qoder): Credits and subscriptions do not transfer, and models are domestic (GLM, DeepSeek, Kimi, MiniMax) |
| Reliability | the product was renamed from TONGYI Lingma to Qoder CN on 2026-05-20 and moved to Credits pricing the same day; the VS Code plugin is deprecated |
| Notes | TONGYI Lingma (通义灵码) is now Qoder CN; lingma.aliyun.com/pricing still serves the pre-rename page (个人基础版 with 50 agent turns a month, Pro at CNY 59 shown as free for a limited time), which the current billing pages supersede. The CNY 59 Pro plan is under USD 20, but the free plan is a 2-week trial followed by a completion-only basic model, and the paid allowance needs a real-name verified Alibaba Cloud account. |
| Evidence note | documented the plans, prices, Credits, the rename, the headless CLI and the account and verification requirements are quoted from first-party pages. The international-site document list (passport or driver's license) and the China-site Alipay route are quoted from the Alibaba Cloud help centre; whether the China-site flow accepts a passport and whether qoder.cn registers a non-mainland mobile number are behind a sign-up and unverified. |
