Frequently asked questions
How much does Vercel AI Gateway cost per 1M tokens?
Vercel AI Gateway pricing starts at $0.030 per 1 million output tokens (Mistral Nemo 12B) across 256 models, with its current flagship GPT-6.1 Sol (Fast) at $20.00. Older premium models in the catalog list higher. Rates current as of October 12, 2026.
What is the cheapest Vercel AI Gateway model?
Mistral Nemo 12B is the cheapest Vercel AI Gateway model on output tokens at $0.030 per 1M, while Ling 3.0 Flash is cheapest on input at $0.021 per 1M. Which wins for you depends on your input-to-output ratio.
What is the largest Vercel AI Gateway context window?
Grok 4.20 Beta Non-Reasoning has the largest context window in the Vercel AI Gateway catalog at 2.0M input tokens, with up to 2.0M output tokens per response.
Does Vercel AI Gateway support prompt caching?
Yes. Muse Spark 1.2 Contributor reads cached input at $0.0020 per 1M tokens, against $0.100 per 1M uncached. Caching pays off when a long system prompt or document is reused across many requests.
Which Vercel AI Gateway models support reasoning or vision?
The Vercel AI Gateway catalog includes 203 reasoning models, 179 vision models, 240 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 Vercel AI Gateway 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.
