How it works
Enter the estimated input tokens and output tokens for one request. Add the provider's price per million input tokens and output tokens, then enter requests per day if you want daily, monthly, and yearly scenarios.
Cost per request = input tokens × input price per million ÷ 1,000,000 + output tokens × output price per million ÷ 1,000,000. Daily cost = cost per request × requests per day. Monthly cost = daily cost × 30. Yearly cost = daily cost × 365.
A request with 1,000 input tokens at $3 per million and 500 output tokens at $15 per million costs $0.003 + $0.0075 = $0.0105. At 100 requests per day, that is about $1.05 per day, $31.50 per month, or $383.25 per year before any extra provider fees or platform costs.
Useful for estimating AI agent costs, API usage, prototype costs, employee AI tooling budgets, or model comparisons before committing to a provider. It is a planning calculator, not a billing statement, so use current provider pricing and remember that extra platform costs may sit outside the token price.

FAQ
How do I calculate AI agent cost?+
Estimate the input and output tokens for one task, add the provider’s token prices, then multiply the cost per request by the number of requests per day, month, or year.
Why do input and output tokens cost different amounts?+
Many providers price input and output tokens separately because generating output usually costs more compute than reading input.
Should I use live provider prices?+
Yes. AI model prices change often, so enter the latest prices from the provider’s official pricing page.
Why might my invoice still be different?+
Because real billing can include other charges besides token pricing, such as cached tokens, tool calls, platform fees, storage, minimum charges, or taxes depending on the provider.
Is this an exact billing calculator?+
No. It is a planning calculator for scenarios and rough budgets. Use it to compare options, then verify the result against the provider's own pricing and billing details.
