text-embedding-3-large from OpenAI costs $0.13 per 1M tokens. Embedding costs scale linearly with the total number of tokens you send.

What Is a Embedding Cost Calculator?

The Embedding Cost Calculator estimates the API cost of embedding a corpus. Enter the number of documents, average tokens per document, and chunking settings to see the total tokens and the cost across common embedding models from OpenAI, Google, and Voyage AI.

How to Use This Embedding Cost Calculator

Frequently Asked Questions

Embedding providers charge per million tokens of text you send for embedding. The cost is therefore the total token count divided by one million, times the model's rate.
Yes. Overlap makes the tokenized total larger than the raw text, and each chunk is embedded separately, raising the final cost.
The calculator includes OpenAI's text-embedding-3 and ada-002, Google's text-embedding-004, Voyage AI's voyage-3, and the open BGE-M3.
