Cost planning
AI Token Cost Calculator
Estimate how much an AI feature may cost before you ship it. This static calculator uses editable public pricing inputs, not live provider APIs.
How to use this estimate
Use this calculator for early product planning, not final accounting. Add a margin for retries, longer conversations, moderation, embeddings, logging, and evaluation runs.
Data source: enter prices from official provider pricing pages. This MVP keeps pricing manual so the site can validate search demand before adding API maintenance.
| Use case | Cost driver | Planning note |
|---|---|---|
| Chat assistant | Conversation length | Watch context growth over multiple turns. |
| Coding agent | Large file context | Budget for long prompts and tool retries. |
| Content generation | Output tokens | Long-form output can dominate the bill. |
