Model GalleryModel Gallery

The cost of using Model Gallery models depends on:

• Model's operating mode.
• Number of input and output tokens. The token count of the same text may vary from one model to the next.

Yandex Cloud Billing represents the use of Model Gallery models in billing units. The total number of billing units is rounded up to an integer.

Cost calculation for a model in synchronous mode

Request parameters:

• Number of prompt tokens: 225
• Number of response tokens: 525
• Model: YandexGPT Lite
• Model operating mode: Synchronous

Total: ($0.001667 / 1,000 units) × 750 units = $0.001250

Cost calculation for a model in asynchronous mode

Request parameters:

• Number of prompt tokens: 115
• Number of response tokens: 1,500
• Model: YandexGPT Pro
• Model operating mode: Asynchronous

The cost is calculated as follows:

• Number of prompt and response tokens: 115 + 1,500 = 1,615.
• Price per 1,000 tokens for the YandexGPT Pro model, asynchronous mode: $0.005001.
• Number of units per token for the YandexGPT Pro model, asynchronous mode: 3.
• Total number of units in usage details: 1,615 × 3 = 4,845.

Total: ($0.005001 / 1,000 tokens) × 1,615 tokens = $0.008077.

Using models in batch modeUsing models in batch mode

With models in batch mode, the minimum cost per run is 200,000 tokens.

Operation of dedicated instancesOperation of dedicated instances

The cost of operation of a dedicated instance depends on the model and selected configuration. Dedicated instances are charged per second with rounding up to a billing unit. However, there is no charge for hardware maintenance and model deployment time.

Prices are shown for 1 hour of use. Billing occurs per second.

The price per 1 unit for a dedicated instance is $0.0083333 without VAT.

Fine-tuningFine-tuning

At the Preview stage, you can fine-tune models free of charge. A fine-tuned YandexGPT Lite model will cost the same as the basic YandexGPT Lite model.

Text tokenizationText tokenization

The use of tokenizer (TokenizerService calls and Tokenizer methods) is free of charge.

Text vectorizationText vectorization

The cost of text vectorization (getting text embeddings) depends on the size of the text submitted for vectorization. Yandex Cloud Billing breaks down the creation of embeddings in vectorization units.

Number	Price, without VAT
1,000 units	$0.000083

Model parameters	Number of units per token	Price per 1,000 tokens, without VAT
Embeddings	1	$0.000083

Cost calculation for text vectorization

The cost of vectorizing a text of 2,000 tokens will be:

• $0.000083: Cost of processing 1,000 tokens.
• $0.000083 / 1,000: Cost of processing one token.

2,000 × ($0.000083 / 1,000) = $0.000166

Total: $0.000166.

Text classificationsText classifications

The cost of text classification depends on the classification model you use and the number of tokens you provide.

• When classifying with YandexGPT Lite, a billing unit is a request of up to 1,000 tokens.
• When classifying with YandexGPT Pro and fine-tuned classifiers, a billing unit is a request of up to 250 tokens.

Requests with less than one billing unit are rounded up to the next integer. Large texts are billed as multiple requests with rounding up.

For example, classifying a text of 770 tokens with YandexGPT Lite will be billed as a single request, i.e., as one billing unit.
The same 770-token text classified with YandexGPT Pro or a fine-tuned classifier will be billed as four requests.

Service	Price, without VAT
1 request (1,000 tokens) to classifier based on YandexGPT Lite	$0.001250
1 request (250 tokens) to classifier based on YandexGPT Pro	$0.001250
1 request (250 tokens) to tuned classifier	$0.001250

Image generationImage generation

You are charged for each generation request in YandexART. Requests are not idempotent; therefore, two requests with the same settings and generation prompt are two separate requests.

Service	Price, without VAT
1 request for YandexART image generation	$0.018333

Using assistants and text agentsUsing assistants and text agents

The AI Assistant API, Responses API, and the storage of files and search indexes are free of charge. For tokens you pay as per Model Gallery model pricing plans.

Using voice agentsUsing voice agents

The cost of using voice agents consists of your fees for speech recognition (input audio), speech synthesis (output audio), and text generation using the speech-realtime-250923.

Service	Price per unit of tariffing, including VAT
Incoming audio, per 1 second	$0.000217
Outgoing audio, per 1 second	$0.000167
Text generation, per 1000 tokens	$0.006668 1

Cost calculation for a voice agent

Cost of using a voice agent per a 60-second session, where:

• Input audio: 60 seconds
• Output audio: 20 seconds
• Number of generated tokens: 2,000

$0.006668 × 2 + $0.000216 × 60 + $0.00166 × 20 = $0.013336 + $0.012960 + $0.033200

Total: $0.059496.

Where:

• $0.006668: Cost of processing 1,000 tokens.
• $0.006668 × 2: Cost of processing 2,000 tokens.
• $0.000217: Cost of processing 1 second of incoming audio.
• $0.000217 × 60: Cost of processing 60 seconds of incoming audio.
• $0.000167: Cost of processing 1 second of outgoing audio.
• $0.000167 × 20: Cost of processing 20 seconds of outgoing audio.
