each column describes the tested configuration named under the model; performance and costs can differ on impossibl. a score one model was not measured on is left blank rather than scored zero. indices are ranked against every model on the gateway with one. last checked 2026-09-11.

estimated usage cost

$0.90

1,000 requests × (1,000 uncached input × $0.30 + 500 output × $1.20) / 1,000,000 = $0.90

base rates; no context pricing tiers are published.

GPT-4.1 nano

openai/gpt-4.1-nano

estimated usage cost

$0.30

1,000 requests × (1,000 uncached input × $0.10 + 500 output × $0.40) / 1,000,000 = $0.30

base rates; no context pricing tiers are published.

estimates use published impossibl api usage rates. configured billing adjustments, funding fees, taxes, and custom workspace rates are excluded and may change the final amount.

image and audio usage, cache creation, and additional tool charges are excluded. reasoning tokens count as billable output, even when they are not visible in the response.
