The same model is not the same price
deepseek/deepseek-r1-distill-llama-70b is sold by 3 providers here, and the dearest charges 7% more per input token than the cheapest: $0.800 on openrouter against $0.750 on vercel. That gap is real money on a workload of any size, and it is invisible in a provider console, which only ever shows you its own bill.
Know what this costs you, per customer
These are list prices. What they turn into on your bill depends on your token mix, and which of your customers is generating it. KostLens wraps your existing client in three lines, reads the usage the provider already returns, and gives you cost per customer and per feature. Your prompts and API keys never touch our servers.
