Prices from the verified provider source ↗. Volumes and cache reuse are your assumptions. Cache requires provider eligibility and retention; this estimate excludes tools, retries, taxes and success rate. Batch is a separate scenario.

THE CACHE CROSSOVER

When reuse pays off.

First write plus subsequent reads of the same eligible prefix. Compare with uncached input for 1 million prefix tokens.

1 reusePublished cache · first saving

No cachePublished cache

Reuses must occur before each cache tier expires. Provider minimum prefix length and other eligibility rules still apply. Output and new input cancel in this comparison.
