Frequently asked questions
How much does Moonshot cost per 1M tokens?
Moonshot pricing ranges from $2.00 to $15.00 per 1 million output tokens across 28 models. Input tokens are cheaper than output on every model. Rates current as of July 20, 2026.
What is the cheapest Moonshot model?
Kimi Latest 8K is the cheapest Moonshot model on both axes — $0.200 per 1M input tokens and $2.00 per 1M output. It is the right default for high-volume, low-complexity work such as classification, extraction and routing.
What is the largest Moonshot context window?
Kimi K3 has the largest context window in the Moonshot catalog at 1.0M input tokens, with up to 131K output tokens per response.
Does Moonshot support prompt caching?
Yes. Kimi K2.5 reads cached input at $0.100 per 1M tokens, against $0.600 per 1M uncached. Caching pays off when a long system prompt or document is reused across many requests.
Which Moonshot models support reasoning or vision?
The Moonshot catalog includes 7 reasoning models, 5 vision models, 10 with tool calling. Reasoning models bill their internal thinking as output tokens, so they cost more per visible response than the headline rate suggests.
How do I calculate my actual Moonshot bill?
Multiply your input tokens by the input rate and your output tokens by the output rate, both per million, then add retries and any conversation history resent on each turn. Calcaas does this against your real usage pattern and shows the margin left at your price point.

What will this actually cost you?
Per-token rates only tell you half the story. Calcaas multiplies them by your real usage — prompt size, response length, retries and conversation history — then shows the margin left at your price point.
