Understanding AI Model Pricing

AI model costs are typically measured per million tokens, with separate rates for input and output. Here is what to know about pricing.

Input vs. Output Pricing

Input tokens are the text you send to the model (your prompt). Output tokens are the text the model generates in response. Output tokens are typically 2-5x more expensive than input tokens because they require more computation.

What is a Token?

A token is roughly 3/4 of a word in English. 1 million tokens is approximately 750,000 words, or about 1,500 pages of text. For code, tokens tend to be shorter - a typical line of code might be 10-20 tokens.

Finding the Best Value

The cheapest model is not always the best choice. Consider the score-to-price ratio: a model that scores 80 at $2/1M tokens may be a better investment than one scoring 40 at $0.50/1M. The "Best Value" section above highlights models with the highest quality per dollar spent.

Frequently Asked Questions

AI model pricing is measured in cost per million tokens for both input and output. Our pricing explorer tracks actual API costs from each provider, showing the distribution across free, budget (under $1/M tokens), mid-range ($1-$10/M), and premium tiers (over $10/M tokens).

Several AI models offer free API access, including many open-source models available through various API providers. Among paid models, budget-tier options under $1 per million tokens provide surprisingly strong performance for most use cases.

API costs vary dramatically - from free to over $60 per million output tokens for the most capable reasoning models. OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google generally charge premium prices for frontier models, while open-source alternatives from Meta, Mistral, and DeepSeek offer competitive performance at fraction of the cost.
