Token counts vary by tokenizer and model; non-OpenAI counts are estimates. Cost is an estimate and provider pricing can change. See each model's source on the pricing page.

The four inputs that set your bill

An AI API bill comes down to input tokens, output tokens, cached fraction, and requests per month. Get rough numbers for each from a sample request, and the projection is usually within a small margin of your actual invoice, close enough to choose a model and set a budget.

FAQ

What if I do not know my token counts yet?

Paste a representative prompt into the counter to get exact input tokens, estimate output from a typical response, then set your monthly volume.
