Wan 2.1 T2V is the most cost-effective option at $0.00/month for your usage pattern.
Most AI models charge per token, with separate rates for input (prompt) and output (response) tokens. Prices are quoted per 1 million tokens. Output tokens typically cost 2-5x more than input tokens because they require more computational resources to generate.
Tokens are the basic units AI models process. One million tokens is roughly 750,000 words. A typical conversation uses 500-1,000 input tokens and 200-500 output tokens. Pricing per 1M tokens lets you estimate costs based on your expected usage volume.
The best value depends on your needs. For high-volume production, budget models like DeepSeek V3 or Gemini Flash offer strong performance at very low cost. For complex tasks, standard-tier models like Claude Sonnet deliver 90%+ of frontier performance at a fraction of premium pricing.
