How it is calculated
- Input cost = uncached input tokens ÷ 1M × the input price per 1M, plus cache-read tokens ÷ 1M × the cache-read price. Output cost = output tokens ÷ 1M × the output price.
- The cache share splits your input tokens: that part is billed at the channel's cache-read price (its multiplier of the input price), the rest at the full input price.
- With cache writes on, the uncached input is billed at the channel's cache-write multiplier — this is how Claude prompt caching is charged.
- The official price is the model maker's published list price per 1M tokens in USD, plus 1% for payment fees — the same reference as the Savings column on the models page. Where the maker lists no cache-read price, cached input is priced with the channel's multiplier, so the saving is never overstated.
- Saving = official cost − our cost; the percentage is taken of the official cost. Prices are the live catalog prices on this page.
