Model Gallery
Warning
The pricing provided below for the common instance and batch processing models are effective until March 3, 2026. Starting March 3, the new pricing policy will apply.
The cost of using Model Gallery models depends on:
- Model's operating mode.
- Number of input and output tokens. The token count in the same text may vary from one model to another. Here is a cost calculation example for processing the same text in synchronous mode using different models.
Yandex Cloud Billing breaks down the use of Model Gallery models in billing units. The total number of billing units is rounded up to an integer.

Example of 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: $0.0050.
- 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: ($0.0050 / 1,000 tokens) × 1,615 tokens = $0.0081.
Using models in batch mode until March 3, 2026
With models in batch mode, the minimum cost per run is 200,000 tokens.

Using Model Gallery models starting March 3, 2026
Warning
This pricing for the common instance models and batch processing is effective as of March 3, 2026.
The cost of using the models depends on the operating mode and the number of tokens for different consumption types:
- Input query tokens.
- Output model response tokens.
- Cached tokens, if certain information is re-used without additional computation, such as instructions for a model.
- Tool tokens provided to the model as a result of invoking any tool.
Caching is enabled automatically where possible and applicable. Caching is not guaranteed and does not apply to output tokens.
Tool tokens include all uncached tokens stored in the message history at the time the tool's results were transmitted. Tool tokens are calculated only for AI Studio built-in tools and do not apply to the results of custom functions. Use of tools is charged separately.

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-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 tokenization
The use of tokenizer (TokenizerService calls and Tokenizer methods) is free of charge.
Text 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. One unit equals one token.
| Model | Price per 1,000 tokens, without VAT |
|---|---|
| Embeddings | $0.000083 |
Example of 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 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 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 considered as two separate requests.
| Service | Price, without VAT |
|---|---|
| 1 request for YandexART image generation | $0.0183 |
Agent Atelier
Voice agents
The cost of using voice agents consists of the following:
- Cost of speech recognition (incoming audio).
- Cost of speech synthesis (outgoing audio).
- Cost of text generation using the speech-realtime-250923 model.
- Cost of tool invocation.
| Service | Price per unit of tariffing, without VAT |
|---|---|
| Incoming audio, per 1 second | $0.000217 |
| Outgoing audio, per 1 second | $0.000167 |
Example of 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
$0.0067 × 2 + $0.000216 × 60 + $0.00166 × 20 = $0.0133 + $0.0130 + $0.0332
Total: $0.06.
Where:
- $0.0067: Cost of processing 1,000 tokens.
- $0.0067 × 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.
Text-based agents
The cost of using text-based agents consists of the following:
- Consumption of tokens as per the pricing plans of the Model Gallery models.
- Cost of tool invocation.
Invoking tools in agents
