What is the cheapest OpenRouter model?

Mistral Nemo is the cheapest OpenRouter model on output tokens at $0.030 per 1M, while DeepSeek V4 Flash Latest is cheapest on input at $0.013 per 1M. Which wins for you depends on your input-to-output ratio.

What is the largest OpenRouter context window?

Does OpenRouter support prompt caching?

Yes. DeepSeek Flash Latest reads cached input at $0.0007 per 1M tokens, against $0.033 per 1M uncached. Caching pays off when a long system prompt or document is reused across many requests.

Which OpenRouter models support reasoning or vision?

The OpenRouter catalog includes 245 reasoning models, 213 vision models, 295 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 OpenRouter 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.
