FAQ
Why is the official price missing?
Official rows require a verified direct vendor or cloud API price. When only aggregators list a model, the Official column shows — and verified aggregator quotes appear in the token table.
How is context different from max output tokens?
Context window is how much input the model can accept in a single request. Max output tokens is the per-response generation cap from the primary listing—often much smaller than the context window.
Where do multi-provider prices come from?
Prices are crawled or synced from token providers (OpenRouter, Groq, Together, and others) and merged into the infrastructure comparison dataset. Verified rows show a fetch date in the status column.
