Seed OSS 36B

UK-hosted Function calling Chat

A dense 36B general assistant served on our own GPUs in our UK datacentre. A solid choice for drafting, summarising and structured output where prompts must stay on UK infrastructure.

What it's best for

Best for everyday assistant work: drafting, summarising, rewriting and question answering, at a mid-range price point that suits steady production traffic. It supports function calling, so it can drive tools and agent workflows.

Pricing

Prices updated daily; last generated 2026-07-29.

Billing is metered per request in GBP on the same monthly invoice as your apps: no subscription, no minimum. We list every model once, at the cheapest route we can serve it on; if we have to fail over to a more expensive route, we absorb the difference and your price does not change.

Where your data is processed

Seed OSS 36B runs on GPUs we own, in our UK datacentre. Prompts and completions are processed entirely on Node infrastructure, under UK jurisdiction, and never leave it. There is no third-party AI provider in the data path and no US CLOUD Act exposure. If your workload is compliance-sensitive, this is the residency story to build on.
