Billing & Groups
5/20/26About 1 min
PulseNeko Bridge is per-token, pay-as-you-go. Every price is public on the Model Catalog.
Reading the catalog
Each model card shows 3 price columns:
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input | Plain input token price |
| Output | Output token price |
| Cache | Cached-hit price (Claude prompt cache, OpenAI cache hit, etc.) |
Toggle the unit at the top between /1M and /1K. Each card also tags its group and upstream icon (anthropic / openai / google …).
How billing works
- Catalog prices are what you pay — quoted in USD per million tokens
- Cache hits bill at the "Cache" column, usually much lower than "Input"
- The same model can cost differently across groups; you pay at the rate of the group your key is bound to
- Balance, charges, and history are all in USD
The exact group multiplier (e.g. anthropic 2.5x) is also visible next to each option in the Create API key dialog.
Groups
Each API key binds a group, which controls reachable models and the multiplier. There are 8 groups (default / anthropic / openai / google / cc / aws-q / codex / windsurf) — see Groups.
Non-token billing
Some capabilities bill per unit, not per token:
| Type | Unit |
|---|---|
| Image generation | per image |
| TTS | per character |
| Realtime voice | per minute |
| Web search | per call |
Marked with their unit on the catalog.
