Fact-Checking Policy

Last updated: 2026-08-21

How we verify pricing

Every price record must include a link to the provider’s official pricing page (sourceUrl) and an ISO verification date (verifiedAt). Our automated validation gate fails any record missing these fields, so a price without a source cannot ship. Each row in the pricing tables shows its verification date and links to the source.

How we verify token counts

For OpenAI models we count with the exact o200k BPE tokenizer running in your browser. For all other providers, where no official client-side tokenizer is freely available, we display a clearly labeled estimate based on a tested character ratio. Estimates are marked “est.” and never presented as exact.

Freshness and re-verification

Provider pricing changes frequently. We re-verify records and update the verification date when a provider announces a change. A record with an old verification date should be treated as provisional until re-checked against the linked source.

Corrections

Material corrections are logged in the changelog with the date and what changed. To report a suspected error, email hello@ai-token-calculator.com with a link to the official source; corrections with a source link are prioritized.
