Compare monthly estimates

Each total uses the same task and human time. Quality and review needs may change, so check with a small trial.

Pricing sources and what the estimate excludes

The listed models use standard, paid text API rates in USD, checked 2 October 2026. Caching, batch discounts, free credits, regional surcharges and taxes are excluded. Setup and maintenance time are excluded. Add recurring maintenance to your review time or fixed costs when needed. Chat subscriptions and API usage have separate terms.

This calculator supports up to 200,000 input and 32,000 output tokens per call. Use billed output tokens, including thinking. Average usage can hide large calls or growing conversation history. Check the actual limits and charges for your provider. Custom prices let you use a different model or your own contract.

Does this tell me which agent is best?

It estimates cost from your inputs. A low token price does not show whether a model can complete your task. Test a small sample, check its results, and update the calls, tokens, review time and success rate before you plan a larger rollout.

How we calculate the cost

One task can take several model calls. An attempt includes all those calls. Extra attempts repeat the same average model and tool costs. Human review uses the share of original tasks you select and the total review time per task.

Attempts per month
Tasks × (1 + extra attempts per 100 tasks ÷ 100)
Model cost per attempt
Calls × (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) ÷ 1,000,000
Monthly bills
Attempts × (model cost per attempt + tool fees per attempt) + fixed monthly costs
Value of human review
Tasks × review share × review minutes ÷ 60 × hourly rate
Budget per successful task
(Monthly bills + review time value) ÷ (tasks × final success share)
