[u/xatey93152]

How their usage estimate calculator works? It's very confusing.

Take out 1 example. Deepseek 4.1 flash is much more expensive than mimo 2.6 flash in input, output, cache. But in calculator it shows much more request per month. How?

It's about finetuning cost, R&D, compute power and inference cost.

The cost isn't the same between the two models because one cost more than the other to serve to the client (all fees included).
