Tools: pick a model by cost

Token estimator
Don't know your workload in tokens? Paste an example of your prompt, say how many such requests you make a month and how long an answer is: you get the monthly workload. The button puts it into the picker above and shows the offers.
Price units
Providers quote per token, per 1K or per 1M tokens: the same price in all three.
