julsimon · x · 2026-09-26
Per Julsimon's Sep 26 read of OpenAI's GPT-6 API list prices per 1M tokens: Astra $10 in / $50 out, Sol $2 / $10, Luna $0.10 / $0.50 — Astra is 100x Luna on both ends. His math: route just 1 in 100 tasks to Astra and the total bill is still cut in half at equal tokens per task.
