Pricing disclaimer
Prices are approximate and based on public per-million-token pricing. AI providers may change prices, apply volume discounts or use different pricing for cached tokens, batch APIs or regional billing. Always verify current pricing on the provider website before making production decisions.

FAQ
How is the AI cost calculated?
The calculator multiplies input tokens by the model input price and output tokens by the model output price, using prices per one million tokens. The result is then multiplied by the number of requests per day to estimate daily and monthly usage.
Are the prices always up to date?
No. Prices can change frequently and providers may apply special rates for cached tokens, batch jobs, enterprise contracts or regional billing. Treat the result as an estimate and check the official pricing page before making business decisions.
Why are input and output tokens priced differently?
Many LLM providers charge different prices for tokens sent to the model and tokens generated by the model. Output tokens are often more expensive because they require generation work during inference.
Can I use this with the Token Estimator?
Yes. First estimate how many tokens your prompt or text uses, then paste those values here to estimate the cost of running that workload through an AI model.
