List prices per million tokens, read off the lab's own docs. Caching, batching and volume deals all cut the real number, so treat this as the ceiling. Check the source before you budget against it.

At 700 words in and 500 out, twenty times a day, that works out around $38 a month. Put your own numbers in, see every Anthropic price, or put it next to another model.

How does it compare to Anthropic's other models?
