OpenAI Cost Calculator

Ai cost calculator

(update prices/modules 06/2024)

OpenAI Cost Calculator is a simple tool for your projects that allows you to estimate the cost of using OpenAI's GPT-3 API. It includes implementations in both JavaScript and Python.

The main scripts are ccp.py (Python version) and ccj.js (JavaScript version), which you can use to calculate the cost of your API usage.

Requirements

  • Node.js and npm (for the JavaScript version)
  • Python 3.x (for the Python version)

Usage

JavaScript

  1. Navigate to the in-javascript directory.
  2. Install the dependencies with npm install.
  3. Run the script with the desired model name and the number of calls. For example:
node ccj.js chatgpt-4k 1000

Python

  1. Navigate to the in-python directory.
  2. No extra dependencies are needed. Just ensure you're running Python 3.x.
  3. Run the script with the desired model name and the number of calls. For example:
python3 ccp.py chatgpt-4k 1000

Price Configuration and Tokens

The pricing information for each model is stored in a prices.json file in each directory. It's essential to note that prices can vary, and you should make sure to keep the prices updated according to OpenAI's official pricing.

One crucial part of understanding the pricing is knowing how OpenAI counts tokens. A "token" in OpenAI terms can be as short as one character or as long as one word. For instance, "ChatGPT is great!" is encoded into six tokens: ["Chat", "G", "PT", " is", " great", "!"]. In most languages, a single character like "a" or a punctuation mark like "." is considered one token.

Please Note

This tool is meant to give a rough estimate of how much your usage of the GPT-3 API might cost. However, it's always a good idea to monitor your actual usage through the OpenAI API dashboard to prevent unexpected costs. This tool does not guarantee the exact pricing, as prices may vary, and the token count may differ based on the specifics of your API calls.
