Calculated by Artificials. Each model is at its listed price per 1M tokens: the maker’s own paid listing, or else the middle paid listing across hosts, from models.dev (MIT). Capability index from Epoch AI (CC BY 4.0). A month is 30 days. Cached input is charged at a model’s cached price where it lists one, and at its full price where it does not. Batch discounts, free tiers, taxes and minimum fees are not included, and a model that thinks before it answers can write more tokens than you set.
