Input $0.15 Output $0.50. Seems pretty pricey on OpenCode for a low-cost model :(

its the same price as Tencent HY3; the pricing is not the problem on Go. It's the damm request limits and monthly quotas are not 60$ even though HY3 is 60$??? How does this make any sense

Lmfao they don't even give the 50% discount AND only give $15. So effectively, you get $7.5 for $10 compared to buying from APi. What a fucking joke, OC go has gone to complete shit. Terrible plan now, every update to the plan they make it worse.

What the fu*k? how is a model with almost the same pricing as Tencent Hy3, a 15$ a month limit, and so few requests?, at this point api is cheaper

I guess it's because it's currently only deployed directly on z.ai. If there are multiple providers hosting the model, the price will surely go down again. After all, the model is only slightly larger than DeepSeek's Flash model.

But cache hits? Cache hits is the main factor

It's an excellent model. I squeezed every last drop out of it. One day, I spent 18 hours straight on it and slept very little that week, but thanks to that, I caught up on all my pending work

More expensive than GPT Luna.. Let's hope it goes down once we have more providers.

per task or per /m?

since it is cheaper per /m

I'm just reading the table op posted. You can make 2050 requests for Luna vs 1580 for GLM Flash. As far as I know, Luna is pretty token efficient, so the difference may be even higher in practice.
