Separate text and media costs

For token-billed interfaces, input and output can have different rates. Check any caching or other billing rules for the selected model. Images may be priced per image or request; video may be per second or clip. A token rate cannot be used to estimate every creative task.

Hold settings constant before comparing

Record the model, channel, resolution, duration, quantity, references, and billing currency. Compare like with like. Automatic routing, reference-video charging, cancellations, and failures can affect the final amount. Use a small task to compare the estimate and actual charge rather than treating a promotional rate as universal.
