What a typical message costs
A chat message is rarely just your question: the model also reads the conversation so far, so 4,000 tokens in and 700 out is a fair middle. At these prices that's $0.0008 on Claude Haiku 5.5, the least expensive Claude model. A long document or a long chat can multiply the input; reasoning and long answers add output.

API or chat?
Building an app, a script or a pipeline that calls a model? You need an API: the provider's own, or a router in front of several. llmwise isn't one.
Want to ask questions, write, analyse files or code with a model yourself? A chat is simpler: no keys, no token maths, and in llmwise a fixed price per message you see before you send.
