Prices and billed costs
Distinguish customer rates, account limits, and reference prices.
Check your model rates
When Playground is enabled, select your key and model there, then open View rates to see verified final token prices when available. Prices show their units and observation time. Final rates unavailable means the console cannot obtain a complete supported price rule; it does not mean the model is free.
Requests still use the selected key’s normal account billing. Usage is authoritative for recorded billed amounts.
Public reference prices
The Models and Pricing pages compare kineticRouter display prices with official reference rates, with the source verification date. Discounts vary by provider and apply to all listed price components. Deprecated models are marked explicitly. The original imported archive remains separate. Model availability and account pricing can differ.
Balance, quota and subscriptions
Account balance is separate from an API key’s spend quota. Raising the quota does not add funds. Subscription access and usage windows appear only when assigned and enabled. Review the current account terms for payment, expiry, or renewal behavior.
Verify the answer and billed usage
- Check the returned assistant message. An error response is not a successful answer.
- Open Usage and select a date range that includes the request. Check the displayed timezone.
- Find the request by its model and key name. Review input/output and cache tokens, latency, and actual billed cost.
- If a request is interrupted or times out, check Usage before repeating it. A retry is a separate request and can incur another charge.
