API pricing and token costs at a glance
Updated on · Published currencies / per 1M tokens; cheapest ranked by input
| Channel | Input / 1M | Output / 1M | Cache read / 1M | Updated / verified on |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| OpenRouterLowest input | USD 10 | USD 50 | USD 1 | 2026-10-31 |
Metered API cost = input tokens / 1M × input rate + output tokens / 1M × output rate. At the lowest-input-rate channel, 1M input plus 250K output tokens costs approximately USD 22.5. This excludes caching, tools, retries and other service fees; the lowest input rate does not guarantee the lowest total bill.

Which channel has the cheapest GPT 6 Astra API?
OpenRouter has the lowest input rate: USD 10 per 1M tokens. Cross-currency ranking uses exchange rates; compare output and cache prices separately.

This excludes caching, tools, retries and other service fees; the lowest input rate does not guarantee the lowest total bill.
