| Token type | USD /1M |
|---|---|
| Input | $0.5 |
| Output | $3 |
| Cache read | $0.05 |
| Cache write (default) | Unverified basis |
| Cache write (1 hour) | Unknown |
Cache-write rates with a verified basis replace the ordinary input charge. Unknown rates are never treated as zero.
- Behind frontier AA intelligence index (blended per-1M-token price, 3:1 input/output; not a measured per-task cost) - GLM-4.7, Qwen3.8 27B, Qwen3.5 397B A17B, Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite, Qwen3.6 Plus are priced the same or lower and at least as capable.
This model has not been measured on DeepSWE (or any other benchmark with a real measured per-task cost) yet, so no cost/capability chart is drawn. Its Artificial Analysis benchmark scores are listed below.
Measured cost per task (DeepSWE)
This model has not been measured on DeepSWE (or any other benchmark with a real measured per-task cost) yet.
Artificial Analysis scores
Artificial Analysis scores describe capability. Compare them against estimated token spend with your cache mix; these estimates are not measured task costs.
