Forecasting your AI development expenses.

AIWorkbench.dev provides a transparent view into the economics of your AI integrations.

How we Calculate

Costs are calculated based on the latest public pricing from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google.

• Input Tokens: The prompt you send.
• Output Tokens: The completion the model generates.
• Total: Input Token Cost + Output Token Cost.

Optimization Strategies

1. Model Selection: Use "Flash" or "Mini" models for simple classification or extraction tasks.
2. Caching: Utilize prompt caching for repeated context to save up to 90%.
3. Max Tokens: Always set a max_tokens limit to prevent "runaway" model completions that can spike costs.
