Calculator

Estimate your AI prompt cost

Paste a prompt, choose an example pricing profile, and estimate cost per prompt run, per day, and per month.

Quick examples

Input tokens are what you send to the AI model. Output tokens are what the model returns. API providers often price them separately.

Advanced settings

Prices are manual for now. Example: if your provider charges $2 input and $10 output per 1M tokens, enter 2 and 10.

Energy usage is a rough estimate. Actual energy depends on model, hardware, provider, datacenter efficiency, workload, and region.
