How to Get a Personalized AI API Cost Report in 60 Seconds
If you're spending money on AI APIs — whether it's $20/month on GPT-5 for a side project or $3,000/month on Claude Sonnet 4.6 for production — you're probably overpaying. The hard part isn't knowing cheaper options exist. It's knowing exactly how much you'd save by switching.
That's why we built the API Cost Report Generator — a free tool that creates a personalized cost report for your specific setup in about 60 seconds.
Generate Your Personalized Cost Report
Select your model, enter your spend, and see exactly how much you could save. Free, instant, no signup.
Generate My Report →What the Report Shows You
The report generator takes your current setup and compares it against all 42 models across 10 providers. Here's what you get:
- Cost breakdown — Input vs output token costs with visual bars showing where your money goes
- Top 3 cheapest alternatives — Ranked by annual savings, with quality scores so you don't sacrifice performance
- Annual savings projection — Exact dollar amount you'd save per year by switching
- Optimization tips — Quick wins like prompt caching, model tiering, and batch processing
- Shareable results — Copy to clipboard, tweet, or share on LinkedIn to show your team

Real Savings Examples
Here's what the tool shows for common setups:
| Current Model | Monthly Spend | Best Alternative | Annual Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| GPT-5 | $100/mo | DeepSeek V4 Pro | $652/yr (87%) |
| Claude Sonnet 4.6 | $250/mo | DeepSeek V4 Pro | $2,004/yr (67%) |
| GPT-5 mini | $100/mo | DeepSeek V4 Pro | $876/yr (73%) |
| Claude Opus 4.8 | $850/mo | DeepSeek V4 Pro | $10,035/yr (98%) |
| Gemini 2.5 Pro | $150/mo | DeepSeek V4 Flash | $1,404/yr (78%) |
These aren't hypothetical numbers — they're calculated from real provider pricing using your exact token counts and request volume.
Why "Personalized" Matters
Generic pricing tables tell you what models cost per token. They don't tell you what your savings would be because:
- Your input/output ratio matters. A chatbot (80% output) has a completely different cost profile than a RAG system (80% input). The report uses your actual ratio.
- Your volume matters. Some providers offer volume discounts. Others don't. The report accounts for your monthly request count.
- Your use case matters. A summarization task needs different quality than code generation. The report shows alternatives ranked by cost and quality for your use case.
