### Know your AI bill before you build

AI API pricing is a maze of per-token rates, caching discounts, and model tiers. Pick the wrong model and a side project quietly becomes a $500/month surprise. AI Cost Calculator turns token math into a number you can plan around — in about sixty seconds.

### Key features

– **12-model price book** — GPT-4o mini through Claude Opus 4.1, Gemini 2.5, DeepSeek, Grok 4, and more, each with editable per-1M-token input/output prices.
– **Real usage modeling** — sliders for average input/output tokens per request, requests per day, cached-input discount, and cached share of input.
– **Instant cost breakdown** — monthly total, per-request and per-1,000-request cost, input vs output split, caching savings, and yearly run-rate.
– **Side-by-side comparison** — sortable table and visual bar chart rank every provider by your exact usage, with the best-value model highlighted automatically.
– **Scenario saving** — keep dev, staging, and production plans (or cheap-vs-flagship comparisons) stored in your browser and switch between them in one click.
– **CSV export** — download the full comparison for budgets, proposals, and client billing.
– **Completely private** — one HTML file, zero network calls, nothing uploaded. Your usage numbers stay on your device.
