A full context window is not a free allowance: every token you send is billed, and the long-context surcharge on some models kicks in well before the window is full.

FAQ

How many words is 1,000 tokens?

About 750 words of English prose. Dense text — code, tables, citations — yields fewer words per token, sometimes as few as 300.

How many pages is 100,000 tokens?

Roughly 150 pages at 500 words per page, or about 75,000 words.

Why does my bill not match this number?

Output tokens are billed at a different rate from input tokens and usually cost three to five times more. A 1,000-token answer bills the prompt plus the completion separately.
