Prices are USD per million tokens; cache read and cache write are the rates for prompt-cache hits and for writing a prompt into the cache. Throughput and latency are measured on AIHubMix — the same figures the model detail page shows — not vendor claims. A dash means the catalog does not publish that field for that model, which is not the same as the model not supporting it.

Inception on AIHubMix

Which Inception model should I start with?

mercury-2.5-preview at $0.20/M input — the cheapest entry here that declares tool calling, and it carries a 260K context.

How is cached input billed?

The Cache read column is the rate for input tokens served from the prompt cache — for example mercury-2.5-preview bills cache hits at 10% of the input rate. Cache write is the surcharge for putting a prompt into the cache in the first place, and only a few upstreams bill it separately. A dash in either column means the catalog carries no cache rate for that model, so plan on paying the full input rate.

Do I need a separate Inception account?

No. One AIHubMix key covers every model on this page, and switching between them is a change to the model string — billing, rate limits, and logs stay in one place.
