Seed-OSS is a series of open-source large language models developed by ByteDance's Seed team, designed specifically for powerful long-context processing, reasoning, agents, and general capabilities. Among this series, Seed-OSS-36B-Instruct is an instruction-tuned model with 36 billion parameters that natively supports ultra-long context lengths, enabling it to process massive documents or complex codebases in a single pass. This model is specially optimized for reasoning, code generation, and agent tasks (such as tool usage), while maintaining balanced and excellent general capabilities. A notable feature of this model is the "Thinking Budget" functionality, which allows users to flexibly adjust the inference length as needed, thereby effectively improving inference efficiency in practical applications.
