Pricing, discounts, and how billing works on CometAPI.
CometAPI charges per token for text models and per image/second for media models - with no monthly subscription. All models are priced at least 20% below the provider's official rate.
You add credits to your account and are charged only for what you use. There is no monthly fee, no minimum spend, and no subscription. Credits roll over - unused balance is kept for future use.
Enterprise customers receive custom pricing and volume discounts, a dedicated account manager, and custom SLAs. Pricing is negotiated on a case-by-case basis. To get a quote: email chen@cometapi.comor book a 1-on-1 consultation: https://calendly.com/cometapi0066/30min.
Both platforms provide access to models like Claude and GPT through a single API key. The key difference is cost: OpenRouter passes through the provider's official rate and charges an additional fee on credit purchases, while CometAPI prices every model at least 20% below the official rate with no platform surcharge - making CometAPI the more cost-efficient choice.
No. Unused credits carry forward indefinitely - there is no expiry date on your balance.
Our competitive pricing comes from our unique business model and technical infrastructure. We have developed an intelligent routing system that optimizes every request, purchase API credits in bulk from multiple providers, and use a multi-region server architecture to secure better rates while maintaining high service reliability.
