About AI Token Cost Calculator

See what an AI feature really costs — per request, per day, and per month — before you ship it.

Every AI feature looks cheap in a demo and expensive in production, because the real driver is not the price on a pricing page — it is tokens multiplied by volume. This calculator turns published per-million-token list prices into the three numbers you actually budget with: cost per request, cost per day, and cost per month. Enter the average input tokens in one request (your prompt, system instructions, and any retrieved context), the average output tokens the model returns, and how many requests you expect per day. The selected model's cost appears instantly, and the comparison table re-prices the exact same workload on every model in the list, sorted cheapest first, so you can see what switching models would save — or cost — at your real volume. It is built for the questions teams ask before launch: What does one support chat cost us? What happens at ten thousand requests a day? Is the stronger model worth several times the price for this feature? All figures are estimates based on the listed prices shown on this page; providers discount, reprice, and bill for extras like caching and retries, so verify current prices with the provider before you commit to a budget.
