How the price is counted
AI models read and write text in small pieces called tokens. One token is roughly three quarters of an English word. You pay for the tokens of your question and of the answer, and the answer usually costs more. So a short question to a cheap model costs a fraction of a cent, while a long document for the strongest model costs noticeably more.
The cost of every question is shown in your account. If a model fails to answer, the tokens for that question go straight back to your balance.
