Official vendor API PAYG pricing is summarized first. The table then lists individual provider offerings without treating their minimum as the official price.
The default version has no provider offering with current input or output token prices.
Official prices use only the vendor's configured official Provider and positive standard USD PAYG rates. Third-party offers remain explicitly labeled.
All published versions linked to this unique model. The score columns identify the version used by the current overall ranking.
