How to Use AI Token + Pricing Calculator
- 1
Paste text and count tokens across multiple LLMs
Paste your prompt or response text. The calculator counts tokens for GPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, and more so you can compare token efficiency for your use case.
- 2
Calculate API cost for your prompts
Paste prompt + expected response. The calculator counts tokens and multiplies by current model rates so you can estimate cost before deploying and keep API spend predictable.
- 3
Compare LLM costs across API providers
Run the same prompt across multiple models. The calculator shows costs side-by-side across providers so you can optimize for the right price/performance trade-off.
- 4
Estimate batch job costs before running
If processing 10,000 documents with summarization, calculator estimates total cost across models. Batch of 10k * 1000 tokens average = 10M tokens. At $0.01/1M = $100. Know budget before committing.
- 5
Monitor and alert on token overages
Track costs of recent API calls. If one call cost 10x more than expected (verbose output?), calculator highlights anomaly. Helps catch infinite loops or huge responses wasting budget.

Quick Cost Estimates
A typical 1,000-word document is roughly 750 tokens (GPT-family tokenizer) or ~850 tokens (Claude-family tokenizer). Cost depends on provider, model tier, and output length:
- Flagship reasoning/coding models usually have the highest output-token costs.
- Balanced mid-tier models are often the best quality-to-cost trade-off for production apps.
- Fast and budget variants can be dramatically cheaper for high-volume pipelines.
- Open-weight and budget providers are often best for bulk summarization and classification.
- The table above is the source of truth for current per-model rates and families.
Prompt caching can reduce input costs by 75-90% for repeated prefixes. All Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google models support caching.
