| Token type | USD /1M |
|---|---|
| Input | $2 |
| Output | $10 |
| Cache read | $0.1 |
| 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) - GPT-6.1 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5.5, Gemini 4 Hydrogen, GPT-6.1 Terra 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.
