Command R
Pricing & Specs
Cohere · $0.15 input / $0.6 output per 1M tokens · 128K context window
The per-token price never tells the full story. A typical task (1K input + 500 output tokens) on Command R costs about $0.0004 — roughly $0.45 per 1,000 runs. But if it needs 3x the tokens of a cheaper model to match quality on YOUR task, the economics flip. The only way to know is to benchmark it on your actual workload.
