Pricing (7/10)
OpenAI’s pricing structure offers flexibility with various models and per-token billing. However, it can be complex for new users with different pricing models and varying costs depending on the chosen options.
Pricing
- Language Models:
- Per-token pricing: You are charged based on the number of tokens (pieces of words) used in your input and output. Prices vary depending on the model chosen (e.g., GPT-3.5 Turbo starts at $0.50 per 1M tokens for input and $1.50 per 1M tokens for output, while GPT-4o starts at $5.00 per 1M tokens for both input and output).
- Batch API pricing: Submitting requests in batches gets you a 50% discount but takes 24 hours for responses.
- Fine-tuning models: Create custom models with your data, billed only for tokens used in requests to that model (e.g., GPT-3.5 Turbo fine-tuning starts at $3.00 per 1M tokens for input and $6.00 per 1M tokens for output, with an additional $8.00 per 1M training tokens).
- Image Models (DALL-E):
- Price per image: Costs vary depending on the model quality (DALL-E 3 is more expensive than DALL-E 2) and image resolution (higher resolution is more expensive). Prices start at $0.016 for a low-resolution image with DALL-E 2.
- Audio Models:
- Whisper (speech recognition): $0.006 per minute of audio (rounded to the nearest second).
- Text-to-speech (TTS): $15.00 per 1 million characters, with a high-definition option at $30.00 per 1 million characters.
- Other Fees:
- Code Interpreter: $0.03 per session.
- File Search: $0.10 per GB of vector-storage per day (with 1 GB free).
