About
Mercury 2 is the first reasoning model fast enough to pick up the phone, a reasoning diffusion language model built for real-time voice agents. Instead of making callers wait through seconds of dead air while an autoregressive model generates thinking tokens one by one, Mercury 2 uses a diffusion large language model architecture to generate tokens in parallel, decoding 1000+ tokens per second on standard NVIDIA GPUs. That speed is fast enough to run a full reasoning pass and start speaking within the latency budget of a natural conversation, reducing the cost of reasoning from seconds of silence to roughly 300 milliseconds. Mercury models work by corrupting clean text into noise, then training a standard Transformer to reverse the process and predict clean text across all positions simultaneously. Because each denoising pass touches many tokens, generation uses the GPU more efficiently than one-token-at-a-time decoding, making custom-silicon-like speed possible on NVIDIA H100s.

About
ModelArk is ByteDance’s one-stop large model service platform, providing access to cutting-edge AI models for video, image, and text generation. With powerful options like Seedance 1.0 for video, Seedream 3.0 for image creation, and DeepSeek-V3.1 for reasoning, it enables businesses and developers to build scalable, AI-driven applications. Each model is backed by enterprise-grade security, including end-to-end encryption, data isolation, and auditability, ensuring privacy and compliance. The platform’s token-based pricing keeps costs transparent, starting with 500,000 free inference tokens per LLM and 2 million tokens per vision model. Developers can quickly integrate APIs for inference, fine-tuning, evaluation, and plugins to extend model capabilities. Designed for scalability, ModelArk offers fast deployment, high GPU availability, and seamless enterprise integration.
