Frequently asked questions

Answers are generated from the live quotes.

We collect o3 prices two ways: the official OpenAI list and quotes from providers our crawler checks daily. Providers in our catalogue sell o3 at $0.180 in / $0.720 out (91% below the official list). Everything is normalised to a blended cost at a chosen input:output ratio, so “o3 price per 1M tokens” means the same thing on every page.

What does the o3 API cost?

The official OpenAI list price is $2.00 per 1M input tokens and $8.00 per 1M output tokens. Cached input is $0.500 per 1M tokens, 4× cheaper than the regular input.

How much does 1 million tokens of o3 cost?

1M input tokens cost $2.00, 1M output tokens — $8.00. With a 1:1 input/output load a million tokens works out to about $5.00. Chatbots with long context push the blended price down; code generation pushes it up.

Where is the o3 API cheapest?

Our measurements show RunAPI as the cheapest: 91% below the official price. Quotes from 2 providers refresh daily — see the table above.

What is the o3 context window?

The context window is 200K tokens. Some vendors raise the price above a context threshold — check the plan notes.

How do I check that a provider key works?

The free checker sends a GET request to your endpoint's model list and reports status and latency. The key is not stored server-side.
