Frequently asked questions
Which AI model is the best value for API usage?
It depends on your task. For high-volume, latency-tolerant workloads, open models like DeepSeek and Qwen on aggregator channels are often the cheapest per 1M tokens; frontier models like Claude Opus and the GPT series cost more but lead on Agent Arena performance. Use this page to compare the cheapest available channel price of each model side by side — prices are normalised to USD for comparison but displayed in each channel’s own currency.
How are API token prices compared across channels and currencies?
Every channel price is converted to USD using cached exchange rates before taking the minimum, so a ¥3/1M CNY channel is correctly ranked against a $0.78/1M USD channel. The cheapest input price determines the recommended channel; output and cached-input prices are shown alongside. The "vs Official" row shows how much cheaper (or dearer) that channel is versus the model producer’s own API.
How many models can I compare at once?
You can compare between two and four models side by side. Pick them from the search box, or share the URL — the ?models= slug list preselects the same comparison for whoever opens it.
