How does the AI API Cost Calculator work?

Cost = (input tokens ÷ 1000) × input rate + (output tokens ÷ 1000) × output rate Then: Rates are per 1,000 tokens (or per million tokens on newer models) Then: Monthly cost = cost per request × monthly request volume Then: Input tokens are typically cheaper than output tokens.

Can you give an example of how to use the AI API Cost Calculator?

Example: Input GPT-4o: 500 input + 200 output tokens, 1000 req/month gives a result of ~$3.25/month.

Is the AI API Cost Calculator free to use?

Yes — completely free with no registration, download, or subscription required. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.
