Convert token prices
Language model providers quote token prices in different units, some per thousand tokens and others per million, which makes comparing them error-prone. This converter translates a price between per-million, per-thousand and per-single-token rates, and shows how many tokens one dollar buys. A price of fifty cents per million tokens is the same as five hundredths of a cent per thousand, which is easy to misread when comparing offers.
Putting every provider on the same basis is the first step to comparing cost fairly.
Comparing provider costs
Because input and output tokens are often priced differently, and the units vary between providers, a small conversion mistake can lead to a large budgeting error. Converting to a common unit, such as per million tokens or tokens per dollar, makes comparisons direct. The tokens-per-dollar figure is especially intuitive for estimating how far a budget will stretch.
Combine this with your expected token volume to project costs. All calculation happens locally in your browser.
Notes on these estimates
Because the token pricing converter runs entirely in your browser, nothing you enter is uploaded, so you can use it with private data safely. The figures are estimates based on the values you provide and common rules of thumb, so treat them as planning guidance rather than exact measurements, and run the tool as often as you need for free.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do providers use different units?
Some quote per thousand tokens and others per million, which makes direct comparison confusing without converting to a common unit.
How do I compare two providers fairly?
Convert both prices to the same unit, such as per million tokens or tokens per dollar, so the figures are directly comparable.
What is tokens per dollar?
It is how many tokens one dollar buys at the given price, an intuitive way to gauge how far a budget will stretch.
Are input and output tokens priced the same?
Often not. Providers frequently charge different rates for input and output tokens, so convert and compare each separately.
