Volume: 49.5M input tokens and 8.25M output tokens per month. Build cost adds $1,250 per month while it is being spread.

The formulas

Tokens        = runs x calls x tokens per call x (1 + retry %)
Model cost    = input tokens / 1M x input price + output tokens / 1M x output price
Human review  = runs x review % x review minutes / 60 x reviewer hourly cost
Build share   = build cost / months to spread it
Total / month = model cost + infrastructure + human review + build share
What this number does not include. Prompt caching discounts, batch pricing, price changes from your provider, evaluation and testing runs, monitoring and alerting work, model upgrades, security and compliance work, and the time to fix an agent when upstream systems change. Token counts per call are the biggest swing, so measure a real run before you rely on this.
