New to this calculator? Start with the ⚡ Playground — a few sliders, instant ballpark. Then switch to the 🧮 Calculator for your exact number.
Two ways to use this: visualize in the Playground, then get your number in the Calculator.
Estimates wasted spend from your bill and how much you actually use heavily.
💡Waste ≈ spend × (1 − heavy-use ratio). The more you pay for and barely touch, the more you’re wasting.

📖 Data sources & methodology
Methodology
- All prices are USD per 1 million tokens, current as of 2026-07-28.
- Vendor-published values have no mark. Inferred/extrapolated values are marked with * and listed below.
- Batch API discounts are 50% off standard rates across providers that offer Batch mode.
- Prompt caching discounts vary by provider (typically 80-90% off cached input tokens).
- Regional data-residency surcharges (Anthropic 1.1x, OpenAI 1.1x, Google regional tiers) are NOT included in base rates.
- Long-context pricing tiers apply when input exceeds model threshold.
- Embedding prices are input-only (no output tokens generated).
