✨ How recommendations work: We scan all active models in the registry that support your current inputs (🖼️ Images), calculate costs with all your parameters, and sort by total cost (cheapest first).

Vision-First Knowledge Retrieval

Scout is optimized for searching through visual databases. Calculate the cost of building a RAG system that understands diagrams, charts, and blueprints.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are these AI model cost calculations?
Our calculations are based on official pricing from each provider (Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, xAI, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Mistral) and are updated regularly. We account for all factors including multimodal inputs, caching discounts, batch API pricing, tool usage multipliers, OCR processing, audio minutes, silence fees, and research mode pricing.
How are image tokens calculated?
Images are tokenized based on resolution: Low: 85 tokens, Medium: 170 tokens, High: 255 tokens, Full: 765 tokens per image. Some models (like Llama 4 Maverick) use tile-based encoding with 1,610 tokens/image (standard) or 8,050 tokens/image (high-res).
How do Market Recommendations work?
Our recommendation engine scans the entire model registry for alternatives that support all your current input parameters (images, video, audio, OCR, tools, etc.). It calculates exact costs with your settings and sorts by price, showing you the best value options available in the market.
What is the YemHub AI Calculator Tool?
The YemHub AI Calculator is the most comprehensive tool for estimating costs and comparing performance metrics across 50+ AI models. It calculates token-based pricing, analyzes multimodal processing, accounts for state-dependent pricing (context cliffs, tiered tunnels), provides optimization recommendations, and now offers intelligent market matching to find the best alternatives for your specific needs.
