How we count
Prices are per million tokens. The big number on each row is blended 3 in : 1 out, the way most work uses a model. A price below OpenRouter's own is listed as cheapest only when the provider says why. IBM trained Granite 4.2 8B and sells it on no catalog we read, so the price every row is measured against is OpenRouter's.
