| Why we track it | Open-weight inference sold by latency tier, plus an open-source gateway teams self-host — the layer where a buy-versus-rent decision turns into a per-token bill. | The clearest published attempt to make inference pricing checkable rather than trusted — they write down the rule that sets each rate and ship calculators that show where per-token billing stops being the cheap option. |
