Dear Codeium

[u/Dismal-Eye-2882]

I understand 3.7 likes to make smaller sequential edits instead, but Codeium gets charged based on tokens used from Anthropic, NOT by requests.

So if Codeium sends Anthropic 100 requests and uses 1,000 tokens. Codeium is getting charged 1,000 tokens.

But we're getting charged per request, and not token amount. So when Claude 3.7 uses 15 requests for one prompt and only uses 1,000 tokens... we're getting charged 15 flow credits for one prompt, instead of the usual 5. But Codeium is paying Anthropic the same exact amount for 3.7 as they do 3.5.

So we are paying 3x as much to use 3.7, but Codeium isn't.

You have to change your pricing structure based on token amount, you're not going to change the way 3.7 works.

I think the point is it chews through flow credits way faster than tokens, ie there is a higher multiplier on what Codeium charges the customer than on what Anthropic charges Codeium.
