Where can I see model pricing?

Open the model page in the API Reference or browse the model catalog. Pricing can differ by model and unit, such as per call, per second, per image, or token-based billing.

When is cost calculated?

Generation task creation returns pricing information when available. Final billing depends on the selected model and the provider pricing rules for that model.

Why do different models use different pricing units?

LinkModel unifies access across providers, but providers price workloads differently. Video models may charge by call or second, image models may charge by image or call, and chat-style models may use token-based billing.

How should I estimate cost before production use?

Start with one model, log model name and task count, and compare usage against the model catalog pricing. For production, keep request volume, retries, polling intervals, and failed-task handling visible in your own metrics.

Can I reduce cost?

Choose lighter models for drafts, limit unnecessary retries, avoid overly dense polling, and use higher-cost models only for final output.
