Estimate prompt cost from editable model rates.
Sample inputs Rates Input price per 1M tokens: 3 Output price per 1M tokens: 15 Usage Expected output tokens: 300 Prompt or document text: You are writing a product-feed QA report. Summarize the most important import risks and recommend next actions. Generated result Summary: Approximate token count: 28. Estimated request cost: $0.004584. Stats - Input Tokens: 28 - Output Tokens: 300 - Estimated Cost: 0.004584 Issues - Note: Token count is an approximation. Enter provider-specific per-million rates for cost planning. Output Input tokens: 28 Expected output tokens: 300 Input rate per 1M: $3 Output rate per 1M: $15 Estimated input cost: $0.000084 Estimated output cost: $0.004500 Estimated total: $0.004584
What the Token Counter and Cost Calculator Checks
-
Approximate input tokens
The tool estimates tokens from text length and word count so planning can happen without an API call.
-
Expected output tokens
A separate output-token estimate is included because response length often dominates cost.
-
Editable per-million rates
Input and output prices can be changed for different model families or pricing tiers.
-
Cost breakdown
The output separates input, output, and total estimated cost.
-
Accuracy warning
The report marks token count as approximate rather than pretending to be a provider tokenizer.
Token Counter and Cost Calculator Questions
- Q: Does the AI token counter and cost calculator upload my prompt text? A: No. Inputs are processed in your browser, and pasted content is not sent to analytics or a server.
- Q: What should I paste into the AI token counter and cost calculator? A: Enter provider prices per million tokens, expected output tokens, and the prompt or document text to estimate.
- Q: What can I copy or download? A: You can copy the cost breakdown as plain text.
- Q: What does the AI token counter and cost calculator not verify? A: It does not use model-specific tokenization, include cached-token discounts, or predict the actual response length a model will produce.
