Capabilities

Tools 4

cheapest_model

Return the cheapest LLM API models that meet a constraint, ranked by blended $/M-token cost. Use this to route an agent to the lowest-cost model with enough context that is currently operational. Filter by minimum context window and provider; weight input vs output cost for your workload.

Discovered
price_change_alerts

Subscribe a webhook to fire when a provider changes prices (or read recent price changes). Pass `webhook` to subscribe (optionally filter by provider and direction 'cut'|'raise'); omit to read recent changes.

Discovered
price_history

Return the dated $/M-token price history (input + output) for one model. This is AI API Radar's exclusive time-series — useful for spotting price-war cuts and trend.

Discovered
status

Current operational status for one or all AI API providers (from each provider's public status page).
