AI API Pricing Dataset

This dataset provides AI API model pricing data for cost estimation, LLM budget planning, and model price comparison.

It is a maintained and curated public dataset for developers, SaaS builders, AI FinOps teams, researchers, and technical writers who need machine-readable AI API pricing records. AI API prices change frequently, so production budget decisions should always be verified against provider pricing pages, contracts, billing dashboards, and invoices.

This Hugging Face repository is a public dataset distribution for aicostbudget-ai/ai-api-pricing. The GitHub repository remains the place for methodology, validation history, issues, and contributions.

Dataset contents

This Hugging Face dataset publishes:

  • train.csv - the CSV snapshot used by the Hugging Face Dataset Viewer
  • prices.csv - the normalized downloadable CSV representation
  • prices.json - the complete machine-readable JSON representation
  • meta.json - dataset version, generation time, verification date, and coverage metadata

Unknown or insufficiently verified prices are represented as null, never 0.

Coverage

Coverage depends on the current dataset version. Current provider coverage may include:

  • OpenAI
  • Anthropic Claude
  • Google Gemini
  • DeepSeek
  • xAI Grok
  • Mistral AI
  • Cohere

Use Cases

  • Compare AI model prices
  • Estimate monthly AI API cost
  • Build LLM cost dashboards
  • Plan SaaS AI feature budgets
  • Track model pricing changes

Data fields

The CSV files use normalized pricing fields. Common fields include:

Field Description
provider_id Stable provider identifier
model_id Stable model identifier
display_name Human-readable model name
model_family Model family or product line
status Current record status
currency Pricing currency
unit Pricing unit, normally per 1 million tokens
input Standard input-token price
output Standard output-token price
cached_input Cached-input or cache-read price where available
cache_write Cache-write price where available
batch_input Batch input-token price where available
batch_output Batch output-token price where available
official_source_url Provider page or document URL used for source checking
accessed_at Date and time the source was accessed
last_verified_at Most recent verification date
effective_from Pricing effective date where available
notes Source interpretation and pricing notes

Load with pandas 

import pandas as pd

url = (
    "https://huggingface.co/datasets/"
    "aicostbudget-ai/ai-api-pricing/resolve/main/train.csv"
)

pricing = pd.read_csv(url)

print(pricing.head())
print(pricing["provider_id"].value_counts())

Load with Hugging Face Datasets 

from datasets import load_dataset

pricing = load_dataset(
    "aicostbudget-ai/ai-api-pricing",
    split="train",
)

print(pricing)
print(pricing[0])

The train split represents the current published pricing snapshot. This dataset is not intended as model-training supervision data.

Public static API

The source repository also publishes a read-only static API through GitHub Pages:

https://aicostbudget.github.io/ai-api-pricing-data/api/v1/prices.json
https://aicostbudget.github.io/ai-api-pricing-data/api/v1/prices.csv
https://aicostbudget.github.io/ai-api-pricing-data/api/v1/meta.json

Provider-level and model-level endpoints are also available in the source repository.

Data provenance

Prices are curated from provider pricing pages, product documentation, provider APIs, or provider announcements when available.

Third-party calculators, search snippets, forum posts, and competitor aggregators are not used as final price evidence.

Full methodology:

Freshness and updates

The GitHub source repository includes automated checks for:

  • Unreachable provider source URLs
  • Stale last_verified_at values
  • Invalid or incomplete generated data
  • Schema and dataset validation failures

The automated workflows do not guess or automatically replace prices. For the latest dataset version and verification information, inspect meta.json.

Limitations

  • Provider pricing may change before the next verified update.
  • Some providers use regional, tiered, contract-specific, or negotiated pricing.
  • Some models may have different prices for long-context requests or special service tiers.
  • Unknown or insufficiently verified fields remain null.
  • A published model record does not imply endorsement or partnership.
  • Final billing decisions should be verified against the provider's pricing page, contract, billing dashboard, and invoice.
