general chat LLM API, text generation API
Every model on this page is a general-purpose chat model: they accept a messages array and return a completion, which is all most applications need. Prices span more than two orders of magnitude across this list, so the practical question is rarely whether a model is good enough — it is which tier matches your traffic. Start at the bottom of the table if you are prototyping, and move up only when you can measure a quality difference on your own evaluation set.
Prices are per 1M tokens in USD · ¥6.6 = $1
