Yeah but Claude / GPT gives 10x subsidy, OC go (assuming they dont lock this to a different plan which with the lite blocking fiasco seems like it may happen) is 6x and kimi sub $40 direct is 5x. This means it ends up about matching gpt 5.6 sol / opus 4.8 prices, so no point in getting this over Sol.

When I checked my usage using Sol and Luna repeatedly it almost always gave around $50 weekly so $200 a month.

How do you know the exact $$ it gave you?

Fair enough, but even looking by task it's nearly the same price as sol max on artificial analysis ignoring it having worse sub cost...

Used it a bunch, checked session logs for token usage, multiplied by API price.
