OpenAI API

The vendor blocks automated reads of its pricing page, so this figure is maintained by the desk and is not machine-checked.

Plans we have recorded

Only confirmed rows set the price shown above. Machine detections stay pending until an editor approves them.

Best for

Teams embedding a model in their own tool.

What to watch

Per-token pricing means your bill tracks usage, so a runaway loop is a runaway invoice. Set a hard limit.

Cheaper alternatives

Comparing on headline price alone is misleading. Read how to price-check an AI tool first, then compare the effective cost per task.

What we don't know

• We record list prices. Your effective price depends on usage, overage and any negotiated discount.
• Vendors change pricing without notice, so check the vendor page before you commit budget.
