Why this isn't trivial
The part people underestimate: Claude's tiers span a wide price range and support prompt caching, so tier choice and caching drive the bill. In practice the biggest savings come from using a smaller Claude tier and caching long system prompts, so it is worth modelling before you commit.
How it's calculated
We estimate this by applying Claude's per-model input and output rates to your token sizes and volume. Every figure uses the current provider prices baked into the site (reviewed daily), and you can override any input to match your own assumptions.
