CostPerPrompt – Live AI API pricing and real-workload cost calculators

u/ahmedk2002 · Reddit

I built a real-time LLM API pricing comparator — because I was tired of not knowing the actual cost difference between models I use LLMs daily at work and kept running into the same frustration: provider pricing pages give you raw numbers per million tokens, but no way to understand what that actually means for your specific use case. Is GPT-4o really that much more expensive than Claude Sonnet for 10k requests per day? What about DeepSeek vs Gemini Flash for high-volume summarization? I

I nearly cut my free plan retention out of fear. I measured first, and the change did nothing. Backstory first, because that's the honest order. I pay for OpenAI, Anthropic and Cursor.

(If you guys have ideas, lmk) It’s just a small app, a side project, so I won’t put too much time marketing this before calling it quit. Pre-AI, I’ve always spent so much effort building an app that I don’t have any time left for marketing (I also run an ERP consultancy). Now, building is pretty much automated, so th
