Token and modality meters

Mistral and Groq API cost calculator

Select the actual usage unit before calculating. A million tokens, a thousand pages, an audio hour and a conversation minute are not interchangeable.

Provider calculator

Mistral API cost calculator

Estimate Mistral text-token spend, then model embeddings, OCR, transcription, TTS and voice usage separately.

Effective Verified Source ↗ Standard text-token list rates; regional, batch, priority and modality meters are separate.

Workload and token usage
Retry rate increases the number of billed attempts.
For models without a listed cache rate, these are billed at normal input price.
Extra billed attempts after failures or repairs.
Custom rate overrides
Enable this only when your contract or internal rate card differs from the selected public record.
Blank uses the record cache rate; if no cache rate is listed, normal input rate applies.
Assumptions

Rates are USD per million tokens unless a field says otherwise. This is a planning estimate, not a vendor quote. Records were verified 2026-11-02; region, contract, context-window, batch, tool and tax meters may differ.

Mistral API modality and usage

Token pricing and non-token usage are separate estimates. Choose a cited unit record below.

Modality and usage calculator

Separate modality usage

Use the actual unit meter for embeddings, OCR, transcription, TTS, voice or other non-token services.

Effective Verified Source ↗ Embedding input tokens, USD per million.

Usage
Starter amount for tokens; replace with measured usage.
Use this multiplier when each event contains multiple units.

The estimate is units ÷ unit size × unit price. Unit price is the cited USD price per selected unit size; it is not converted into token pricing.

Estimate, not a provider quote. Public list rates, regional terms, contract discounts, taxes and usage meters can change. Check the linked source and replace assumptions with your account terms before budgeting.

Pricing and method sources

Rate cards display their own verification and effective dates. Use the original provider source to confirm current billing details.

How this estimate works

Pick the meter that matches the endpoint

Mistral publishes separate prices for generalist text, cached input, embeddings, OCR pages, transcription minutes, generated characters and voice-agent minutes. Groq publishes per-million-token rates for supported production models and per-hour prices for Whisper transcription. This calculator keeps those units in their own tool modes.

Separate public rates from quote-only models

Some Groq model rates are listed as Contact Sales. No guessed rate is assigned to those options. If a model, region or contract price is not publicly stated, enter a value from your account or treat it as quote-required rather than using zero.

Price record and update boundary

This page uses 4 token-rate record(s) verified on 2 November 2026. The data are a snapshot, not a live quote. Every selected record includes its provider source link, effective date, verification date and context note.

Frequently asked questions

Can I compare Mistral and Groq with a single per-token rate?

Only for compatible text-token workload records. OCR, audio, embeddings and voice use other units and should be compared in their corresponding calculator mode.

Does the Groq model list show all production prices?

No. Some production models are Contact Sales. The tool only shows records for which the source page lists a public rate.

Are transcription prices per minute or per hour?

The source units differ by product. The calculator converts input quantity using each record’s explicitly shown unit and keeps the original price basis visible.

Is there a custom-rate option?

Yes. Use custom values when your agreement, region or selected service has a different rate.
