Affordable GPT API for your project
Evaluate a low-cost GPT API using actual token rates, supported protocols and model availability. Start with Clydex.
A lower-cost GPT API
Clydex provides API access for assistants, automation and developer tools. The Plus comparison table shows Clydex rates alongside an OpenAI Standard price reference, with its reference date. Separate input, cached input and output costs when estimating a workload.
Estimate a real request
Cost depends on the model, pool, context tier and observed token usage. For 10,000 input tokens and 2,000 output tokens without caching, multiply the input rate by 0.01 and the output rate by 0.002, then add them. Longer answers and repeated conversation history increase cost.
Check compatibility before switching
Set the base URL to https://clydex.shop/v1 and use a Clydex key. Start with the documented Responses protocol. An OpenAI-style client does not imply every OpenAI endpoint or feature is supported. Check the catalog and test streaming, tools and error handling required by your app.
