Cheapest verified cached-input token prices

How this ranking works

Only verified USD input/output quotes qualify. Sorted by the published cache-read or cached-input rate per 1M tokens. Models without that verified field are excluded; cache-write charges and eligibility conditions can still apply. Equal values share a rank; slug order only breaks display ties. Affiliate status never affects order.

Coverage is our database, not every API on the market. Default non-batch tiers apply, including DeepSeek peak rates and fixed OpenRouter backend quotes. Cache-write costs, long-context surcharges, optional tools, hosting conditions and tokenizers can change your bill. Compare all tiers and source terms before choosing.
