Providers are those listed by models.dev. This site has not vetted them one by one; each provider's own page has the binding price.

Prices and specs come from models.dev (MIT licence), updated 2026-11-12. Each provider's name links to its official docs. A provider priced at 0 usually includes the model in a subscription; it is not necessarily a free API.
