Workload cost calculator
Share of input tokens served from cache. Applied only to models with a cache meter.
Rows with a rate that changes by time of day, promo window or service tier are priced for this scenario instead of their flat listed rate; a brand-colored label under the model name names which one applies. Context size for band-priced rows uses the input-token count below.
Picking a specific hour also previews time-of-day rates that are scheduled but have not started billing yet; those rows are labelled · preview with their start instant. Now only ever shows rates that are billable at this moment.
What this lane charges right now
Priced under the workload and scenario above. The full published schedule below always shows every variant regardless of which scenario is selected.
Where this workload's cost goes
60M input tokens (90% cache hit) and 210K output tokens, at the resolved rate above.
$24.00 + $10.80 + $3.15 = $37.95
How much to trust these numbers
Standard long-context rate for prompts above 272K input tokens. Batch and Flex are half price; Fast mode is 2x and Ultrafast is 6x.
OpenAI's official GPT-6.1 Sol model page and API pricing page, captured 2026-09-30: prompts above 272K input tokens use $4/M input, $0.20/M cached input, and $15/M output, with a 1,050,000-token context and 128,000 max output. Cache writes are billed separately and are outside this schema.
