CostPerToken: The Daily LLM Price Ledger

costpertoken.dev Observed source

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A daily pricing tracker comparing 396 LLM models from 58 providers across token costs, context windows, workloads, and price history.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

CostPerToken combines catalog coverage with a simple cost model: blended price weights input tokens at 75% and output tokens at 25%, both measured per million tokens. The homepage separates free-tier endpoints from its cheapest-model ranking and shows context capacity beside each price. Its workload section translates token rates into four monthly bill scenarios, while the price-change area currently exposes two days of history.
