Price history

Historical rates apply to the named model version and price schedule. They do not imply this model is still available or that an API alias still serves the same version.

Each source has its own history. We don’t join conflicting sources into a single price trend. Standard input prices exclude cache discounts.

When live checks began

These are the earliest and latest successful checks we can prove from our retained polling records. Reconstructing an older price never moves these timestamps backward.

A baseline of these monitoring records was preserved on 2026-09-18. The current checks below may be newer.
