AI monthly cost calculator
Turn a single request token cost into a monthly figure by setting your expected request volume.
Token count uses the exact GPT (o200k) tokenizer. Counted in your browser, never uploaded.
| Model | Tokens | Per request | Monthly | Context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Qwen3.8 Max | 0 est. | $0.0030 | $3.00 | 0.1% |
| DeepSeek V4 Flashcheapest | 0 est. | $0.00014 | $0.14 | 0.1% |
| Claude Opus 5 | 0 est. | $0.013 | $12.50 | 0.1% |
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.
Scaling one request to a month
Monthly cost is simply per-request cost times requests per month, but the volume is easy to underestimate: background jobs, retries, and multi-step agents multiply real call counts. Use a realistic monthly volume, including retries, to avoid a projection that is comfortably below the actual invoice.
FAQ
Should I include retries and background jobs?
Yes. Retries, evaluations, and agent steps all bill as separate requests. Count them in your monthly volume for an accurate estimate.
