Token pricing breakdown
Your costs are strictly defined by the tokens you consume. We charge $0.15 per 1 million input tokens and $0.50 per 1 million output tokens. This simple formula ensures you never pay for unused capacity.
Every request is billed based on actual usage. Errors and refusals consume no tokens and cost nothing. You only pay for the text the model generates and the context you provide.
Prepaid credit & crypto payments
We require a prepaid balance to ensure your account remains active. You can top up using USDT on the TRC20 network or USDC on the Base network. We accept whole amounts ranging from $20 to $500.
Higher top-ups earn you bonus credit. Depositing $50 grants a 5% bonus, $100 adds 10%, and $200 provides a 15% bonus. Your credit never expires, so you can use it whenever you are ready to scale.
Free trial & refunds
New accounts receive $0.50 of trial credit valid for seven days. This allows you to verify latency and output quality before committing funds.
Your prepaid credit is non-refundable but never expires. If you accidentally duplicate a charge, visit the Support page to resolve the balance. Your base rate remains transparent regardless of your total spend.
