These plans are marked as test, internal, disabled, gated by top-up or membership, or have a near-zero ratio. They may not be purchasable or stable, so they are listed separately and left out of the ranking and statistics.

How this ranking works
All per-request prices: 21,074 prices from 649 sites (about 565 companies). 19,415 are ranked, from 634 sites (about 551 companies); 1,659 more are listed separately and not ranked. Prices collected up to 2026-10-17.
This model has 31 per-request prices; 27 can be compared directly (23 ranked, 4 listed separately). Not comparable yet: display unit not confirmed 2, price not parsed yet 2
10 recent · 0 stale (older than 10 days, or not updated by this refresh) · 0 unverified timestamps. Minimum and median only count recent paid prices; older prices stay in the table. 0 zero values are separately unverified, without proof of free eligibility.
Per-request price = model price × group ratio, converted to site credits with the site’s own unit. Prices per second or per image are listed separately.
Prices are converted to site credits using each site’s published ratio and display multiplier. What you actually pay depends on its top-up rate. Several sites run by the same company take one place in the ranking: its cheapest plan, with the other sites listed under it. We judge “same company” by identical prices, status pages or homepage code; this is not a legal finding. To see every site’s prices, choose “All plans” or filter by provider.
