UnverifiedToken efficiency refers to the ratio between the total number of tokens a model consumes to complete a specific task and the output quality; under the token-based billing model, it directly determines usage cost.68% similarVerifiedEvaluating the actual cost of an LLM should use 'cost per task' rather than 'cost per token'—that is, the total token consumption required to complete a unit task multiplied by the unit price.63% similarUnverifiedThe token count recorded by the Cost node comes from the usage field of the API response; if the provider does not return usage (such as some proxy endpoints), then in_tokens: null is written and usd_estimated is marked, and estimated rows do not enter alert queries but only enter the dashboard.61% similarUnverifiedCost per task = input tokens × input unit price + output tokens (including thinking tokens) × output unit price.60% similarUnverifiedPer-request billing is flat and predictable; per-token billing is a function of input, output, and the number of loop retries, so the cost shape is different.60% similar
