How we count
This report is rewritten by every refresh until November 2026 ends, and after that it is never changed. This version was written from the refresh of 1 Nov 2026.
A move is a price that ended the month somewhere other than where it started it, in the provider's own currency, so an exchange rate moving is not a move, and a price that went down and back up again is not one either.
The cheapest of a tier is a price that could lead a ranking on the day: the provider shows it as available and its prices were read in the last three days.
Every price is per million tokens at the provider's standard rate, blended 3 in : 1 out, with no cache, batch or promotional discount. The typical price is the middle of every priced row anyone sells. A free tier is a limit rather than a price, and is in none of these numbers.
A price below the maker's own with nothing published to account for it is listed on the model's page and is never a cheapest here. A tier counts only models sold by 3 providers or more, so one rarely sold variant cannot own it.
The moves are the makers' own prices, where the lab that trained the model publishes one. Resellers' prices move as well, many of them from day to day as their catalogs change; the changes page lists those as they happen.
