Token efficiency changes the real price
Output tokens typically cost 3–5× input on frontier models — weight your traffic mix accordingly.
Tokenizer tax: the same sentence is not the same number of tokens
everywhere. Non-English text typically needs 20–30% more tokens for identical content,
so a nominally cheaper $/1M rate can cost more per delivered character in multilingual workloads.
