How we count
Together AI is cheaper on 7 of the 24 models both sell, Fireworks AI on 5, and 12 cost the same at both. Both are the same kind of provider, hosts running the same models, so the price is most of what separates them.
Each price is the cheapest that provider charges for the model, per M tokens, blended 3 in : 1 out. The smaller line under it is the price in and the price out.
A free tier is a limit rather than a price, and a price below the maker's own with nothing published to account for it is left out, so neither can be marked as the cheaper of the two.
