Input priceWhat you pay for everything you send the model — your question, plus any documents or earlier conversation you include with it. | $0.25 | $2.00 |
Output priceWhat you pay for the text the model writes back. It is normally the dearer half: producing an answer costs more than reading one. | $1.50 | $8.00 |
Cached input priceA reduced rate for text you send over and over. If every request starts with the same instructions or the same document, the provider keeps a copy ready and charges less to read it again. | $0.025 | $0.50 |
