Catalog entries link to their specification and availability sources. This is a curated selection, not every model each provider offers. Best prices are the lowest collected USD tariffs, not a total-cost estimate. Token offers are selected by input price, with output from the same tariff; workload mix may change the cheapest provider. Listed variants may require batch processing, off-peak hours, or specific media settings. Price coverage varies by provider; collected tariffs include their source and observation time. Benchmark scores are a dated snapshot, not a live feed or a universal measure of quality. They apply to the shown evaluation configuration; listed prices may use different settings. Models without verified scores are not assumed to be weaker.
