Biggest savings against the list price.
prices as of · re-ranked daily · 186 qualifying models
Every row here is below the maker's own list price with a published reason behind it: the weights are open and somebody else hosts them, a regional price list applies, or the provider says what funds the discount. A price below list that nothing accounts for is shown on the model's page and ranked nowhere, here or elsewhere. 186 models have a reason we can point at, the widest gap being 94%. Prices are per million tokens, three parts input to one part output, at each provider's standard rate.
Today's pick is Nano Banana at Kilo Gateway, $0.15 in and $1.25 out per million tokens, read on 16 Sept 2026.
