Notes

Powerful model for complex tasks. Models with the same snapshot date are identical across all platforms and do not change. Aliases are useful for experimentation, but specific model versions are recommended for production. Aliases are subject to the same rate limits and pricing as the underlying model version. Batch API offers a 50% discount on input and output tokens. Tool use pricing includes additional tokens for tool parameters and system prompts. Agent use case pricing examples are provided. Cost optimization strategies include using appropriate models, prompt caching, batch operations, and monitoring usage. Volume discounts and enterprise pricing are available. Billing is monthly based on usage, processed in USD, with credit card and invoicing options. 1 token is approximately 4 characters or 0.75 words in English.
