AI Rate Card shows the prices of AI models at many providers so that buyers and AI assistants can compare them. Your models get a card on the site, a row in the API (/v1) and in our MCP server, with links to your own pages. The order of every list is by price only - money never moves anyone up (see "How the order is formed").
Already in the catalog?
We already read the public pricing pages of many providers. Find yourself on Providers, open your card and press "This is my company". You prove the domain is yours (step 1 below) - and you manage the card: its look, the analytics, a recheck of your prices. Your prices keep coming from your own site.
The path of a new provider
- An account. Create one - a login and a password, no e-mail, no phone.
- Your company. On Add your company type its name and your site, for example
acme.ai. If the site is already in the catalog, we send you to "This is my company" instead. - Prove the domain is yours - any one of three ways: a file
https://your-domain/.well-known/airatecard-verify.txtwith the one line we show (the easiest); a DNS TXT record_airatecard-verify.your-domainwith that line; or a tag<meta name="airatecard-verify" content="...">in the<head>of your home page. Then press Check now. - Models and prices. One block per model: its id exactly as in your API's
modelparameter, a name, the type, the price (per 1 million tokens for text models; per image, second or request for the rest), the context and the max output for text models, what it accepts (text, images, audio...). The form checks everything as you save. - The file. The form makes your
models.yaml. Download it and put it athttps://your-domain/.well-known/airatecard-models.yaml(or any https address on your domain), then press Check the file on my site: we download it and run the same check as every day. - Publish. The collector switches you on by itself - usually within 10 minutes - and the page shows a link to your card.
After that
- We read the file once a day. Change a price in it - the catalog changes it the next day, or in about 10 minutes if you press Update now in the cabinet. Nothing else to keep up.
- A file with an error changes nothing that day: the previous prices stay, and the cabinet shows what is wrong.
- Keep the domain record in place: we check it again from time to time, and three failures in a row remove the "verified" mark.
- In the cabinet: the look of your cards, the analytics of their views and clicks, "recheck my prices" once a day.
Writing the file by hand
Already keep a price list in code? Skip the form: write models.yaml (or the same structure in JSON) yourself from the template models.yaml - every field has a hint and an example - and give its address in step 5. Required fields are the columns of our main table: model, display_name, model_page, category, prices, input_modalities, context_length (llm, embedding, rerank, moderation), max_output_tokens (llm), regions. Recommended fields fill the full table: description, creator, hf_model_id, output_modalities, features, reasoning, quantization, params_total_b, params_active_b, api_endpoints, status, expiration_date, free. Complete cards are cited by AI assistants more often, found by more filters and ranked higher in the provider rating.
What we publish and what not
We publish the name, the site, the model pages, the prices, the facts and the date of the check. We never publish where we read your prices from. Your account has no e-mail and is not shown anywhere.
