Alibaba prices Accio at $3.69 for 107 tasks

Alibaba.com says its Accio commerce agent completed a 107-task benchmark for an estimated $3.69, versus $9.27 for OpenAI Codex and $9.51 for Anthropic Claude Code. The company attributes the gap to commerce-specific models, cache reuse, context compression, and coordinated agent execution; its benchmark release says Commerce Agent Bench draws on 1.6 million conversations and 200,000 execution traces from 10 million active SMB users. Small-business builders should read this as a vendor-run routing and workflow result, not a universal model price list, and compare their own task mix against the price-per-point lesson from Gemini 3.7 Flash before switching.
