What this site checks
- Official rate cards, including input, output, cached input, batch and free-tier conditions.
- Documentation for API compatibility, model status, rate limits and deployment options.
- Workload fit: whether a provider’s product is designed for the task being recommended.
- Caveats that can change total cost, such as retries, provider variance, review time and data-use terms.
What this guide does not claim
The guide does not convert public rate cards into benchmark certainty. A small model at $0.02 per million tokens is not equivalent to a frontier model, and the same prompt can produce different acceptance rates across products. Scores are editorial judgments for the use cases described.
Featured-provider disclosure
Omev AI is the featured recommendation on the homepage. Links to Omev include campaign parameters so visits can be attributed. That commercial focus does not change the link treatment of source citations or the obligation to show where another provider has a lower raw rate or a stronger fit.
Corrections
AI pricing changes quickly. If a rate, model status or product claim is out of date, send the relevant official source to [email protected]. We prioritize verifiable corrections over promotional requests.
