AI Budget Calculator
Find out how many AI API requests you can afford with a monthly budget. Choose a model, enter your token usage, and estimate your monthly, daily, and yearly request capacity.
Your monthly budget
Quick budgets
With a $100.00 monthly budget
estimated requests per month
Estimate based on your selected model and token usage. The budget is treated as a monthly budget. Actual API costs may vary with pricing changes and other usage factors.
How does the AI budget calculator work?
The calculator estimates the cost of one API request using your selected model's input and output token prices. It then divides your budget by the estimated cost per request to calculate how many requests you can make.
Why input and output tokens matter
AI APIs usually charge separately for input and output tokens. Two applications making the same number of requests can have very different costs depending on how much text they send and how much the model generates.
Common AI API budgets
A monthly AI API budget can represent a personal experiment, an MVP, a SaaS application, an internal tool, or a production AI workload. Use the calculator to test different models and token volumes before estimating your API spending.
