Solar Pro 4 Benchmarking und Analyse von API-Anbietern

Price per token for cached prompts (previously processed), typically offering a significant discount compared to regular input price, represented as USD per million tokens. The values shown here are the cache hit price; cache write and cache storage are billed separately and vary by provider — see "Cache pricing by provider" for detail.

Tokens per second received while the model is generating tokens (ie. after first chunk has been received from the API for models which support streaming).

Tokens per second received while the model is generating tokens (ie. after first chunk has been received from the API for models which support streaming).

Weighted average cost per Intelligence Index task. Each evaluation’s cost is calculated from input, cache hit, cache write, reasoning, and answer token prices, divided by task count, and weighted by its Intelligence Index weight.

Time to first answer token received, in seconds, after API request sent. For reasoning models, this includes the 'thinking' time of the model before providing an answer. For models which do not support streaming, this represents time to receive the completion.

The share of cacheable input tokens served from the provider's prompt cache, measured during multi-turn agentic coding sessions. We regularly measure each endpoint and report a representative rate based on recent measurements. Higher values mean more of the input is billed at the cheaper cache-hit price, where the provider offers one, which lowers the effective cost of agentic workloads.
