Reasoning-effort configurations
The same model behaves differently depending on how much it is allowed to think. Each row is one setting, scored only on the benchmarks that were run at that setting. “Default” means the publisher did not say which setting was used.

Price history
Listed price per 1M tokens over time, as recorded by OpenRouter for the provider with the longest history.
What a task costs
Estimates from list price, output speed and time to first answer for the best configuration. “With caching” assumes three-quarters of the input is served from the prompt cache at $0.100 per 1M. Reasoning tokens are not modelled.
| Workload | Tokens in / out | Cost | With caching | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chat reply | 400 / 300 | $0.0019 | $0.0016 | 25.8 s |
| Summarise a 30-page report | 12,000 / 600 | $0.015 | $0.0069 | 29.4 s |
| Code edit | 6,000 / 1,500 | $0.013 | $0.0095 | 40.2 s |
| Agentic coding session | 60,000 / 4,000 | $0.080 | $0.040 | 1.2 min |
