How it works

  1. Provider & model — select embedding model.
  2. Token count — tokens per document or batch.
  3. Volume — multiply for total corpus cost estimate.

Pricing changes

Provider rates update frequently. Use this for ballpark budgeting; confirm current pricing on vendor sites before procurement.

Chat vs embeddings
