Real-World Example​

Let's consider a common use case where you're building an application that uses both Groq and GPT-4:

Step 1: Initial Draft with Groq​

  • Input Tokens: 1,000
  • Output Tokens: 500
  • Credits Calculation: (1,000 × 5/1,000) + (500 × 5/1,000) = 7.5 credits

Step 2: Final Polish with GPT-4​

  • Input Tokens: 1,000
  • Output Tokens: 500
  • Credits Calculation: (1,000 × 30/1,000) + (500 × 60/1,000) = 60 credits

Total Usage​

  • Total Credits: 7.5 + 60 = 67.5 AI credits
  • Base Cost: 67.5 × $0.001 = $0.0675
  • Final Price (with 25% markup): $0.0675 × 1.25 = $0.084375

Flexible Billing and Model Usage​

  • Mix and Match Models: Use Groq for cost-effective tasks and GPT-4 for high-quality outputs.
  • Unified Billing: All usage is consolidated into a single invoice, regardless of the models used.
  • Bring Your Own API Key: Reduce costs by using your own API keys for your preferred LLMs.
  • Embedded Pricing: Use our managed service for convenience.
  • Switch Anytime: You can change between using your own API keys or the embedded pricing at any time. Full freedom and control for creators!

Transparent Pricing​

  • 1 AI Credit = $0.001
  • Profit Margin: 25% markup for managed accounts.
  • Example Costs:
    • Groq Model: 5 credits per 1,000 input/output tokens.
    • GPT-4: 30 credits per 1,000 input tokens, 60 credits per 1,000 output tokens.

You can switch between these options at any time, ensuring that your workflow is always optimized for your needs.
