Token counts vary by model. Use provider-reported usage for a closer estimate. An endpoint's listed price does not guarantee account access or quality on your task.

OpenRouter prices are its published top-provider rates. Direct API quotes are labeled separately. Lowest token cost does not establish best quality. Invalid or unsupported scenarios have no estimated price.
RETAINED MEASUREMENTS
Cost per strict pass
Total estimated provider charges for every attempt, including failures, divided by the number that passed the deterministic checks.
These costs use recorded token usage and the rates retained with each run. Settled invoice attribution is unavailable. A strict pass is a test outcome, not human acceptance of a production answer.
12 tasks × 3 repetitions per model and category. No LLM judge. Provider-specific medium reasoning settings are not equal compute. These estimates are not eligible for a billed-cost winner. Different cohorts are not paired comparisons; v1 and v2 also use different prompts and scoring. Hardware, human repair, taxes and tool fees are outside this cost boundary. The historical ledger rounds each attempt upward to one microdollar. No new inference was run for this calculator.
DeepSeek pricing is included above. This retained coding/math cohort has no DeepSeek acceptance-and-cost record, so its cost per accepted answer is unmeasured here. Inspect other retained task-cost evidence ↗
PRICING PROVENANCE
Inspect the snapshot
Each route retains its source link, pricing fields, model ID, context limits and verification date. These are text-token estimates: multimodal input billing, tools, regional uplifts, purchase fees and special service tiers can change your bill.
OpenRouter's base rates come from its top provider and may change when the route changes. Conditional long-context and UTC schedules are retained. Conservative mode uses a per-field ceiling across the published rates applicable to your input length; it may overestimate a particular time window.
