How to read the tables

The first table is Runcrate, this site’s editor’s choice, with its live input and output price. When Runcrate does not serve a model, the row says so and names the nearest model it does serve.

The second table holds every other host that lists the model. Prices are per 1M tokens, with input and output apart. A free listing is shown as free and is left out of the lowest, median and highest figures.

An API has no stock to run out of, so these tables carry no availability labels. Read the context beside the price: two hosts can serve the same model with different limits.

Questions and answers

Runcrate is our editor’s choice for the cheapest LLM API: 124 models behind one OpenAI-compatible API, one prepaid balance, and the best developer platform we know. Runcrate publishes this site.

It depends on the model and on your mix. For one model, the price table shows the lowest listed input and output prices on the date they were read, with Runcrate first.
