The staircase chart appears once a price change is detected.
What it excels at
Handles 1M-token context with vision inputs at low per-token cost, suited for large-scale batch workloads.
The business tradeoff
Batch-only access increases latency; output pricing is six times input, limiting cost efficiency on long generations.
