Use live model pricing when JavaScript is available; this static form keeps token, media, and workflow inputs visible to crawlers.
Pricing source: live catalog with snapshot fallback
Usage Logs remain the source of truth for charged USD.
Token, image, video, audio, embedding, and complex parameter branches vary by model. Verify the first request in Usage Logs.
Read billing docsHow to estimate
Start by estimating one representative multi-step coding agents and repository tasks request, then multiply by expected volume after verifying one real Usage Logs entry.
- Use exact model IDs from /models or /docs/models.
- Set bounded output limits for text or agent workloads.
- Treat media pricing as model-specific, because image, video, and audio units can differ.
What to verify
A calculator is only a planning aid. The model catalog and Usage Logs are the operational source of truth for production billing.
- Compare expected tokens, assets, duration, or workflow runs against actual billed usage.
- Use separate API keys for important apps or customers.
- Contact [email protected] for high-volume usage planning.
FAQ
Does this calculator publish live prices?
No. Use it to structure the estimate, then confirm live published pricing in /models and actual charges in Usage Logs.
Why should output limits be bounded?
Bounded output lets MetisRouter reserve a maximum possible cost before routing paid token requests.
