IF not set to max_input_tokens, if provider specifies it.", "mode": "one of: chat, embedding, completion, image_generation, audio_transcription, audio_speech, image_generation, moderation, rerank, search", "output_cost_per_reasoning_token": 0.0, "output_cost_per_token": 0.0, "search_context_cost_per_query": { "search_context_size_high": 0.0, "search_context_size_low": 0.0, "search_context_size_medium": 0.0 }, "supported_regions": [ "global", "us-west-2", "eu-west-1", "ap-southeast-1", "ap-northeast-1" ], "supports_audio_input": true, "supports_audio_output": true, "supports_function_calling": true, "supports_parallel_function_calling": true, "supports_prompt_caching": true, "supports_reasoning": true, "supports_response_schema": true, "supports_system_messages": true, "supports_vision": true, "supports_web_search": true, "vector_store_cost_per_gb_per_day": 0.0 } } ``` ### Examples #### Anthropic Claude ```json { "claude-3-5-haiku-20241022": { "cache_creation_input_token_cost": 1e-06, "cache_creation_input_token_cost_above_1hr": 6e-06, "cache_read_input_token_cost": 8e-08, "deprecation_date": "2025-10-01", "input_cost_per_token": 8e-07, "litellm_provider": "anthropic", "max_input_tokens": 200000, "max_output_tokens": 8192, "max_tokens": 8192, "mode": "chat", "output_cost_per_token": 4e-06, "search_context_cost_per_query": { "search_context_size_high": 0.01, "search_context_size_low": 0.01, "search_context_size_medium": 0.01 }, "supports_assistant_prefill": true, "supports_function_calling": true, "supports_pdf_input": true, "supports_prompt_caching": true, "supports_vision": true } } ``` #### Vertex AI Gemini ```json { "vertex_ai/gemini-3-pro-preview": { "cache_read_input_token_cost": 2e-07, "cache_read_input_token_cost_above_200k_tokens": 4e-07, "cache_creation_input_token_cost_above_200k_tokens": 2.5e-07, "input_cost_per_token": 2e-06, "input_cost_per_token_above_200k_tokens": 4e-06, "input_cost_per_token_batches": 1e-06, "litellm_provider": "vertex_ai", "max_audio_length_hours": 8.4, "max_audio_per_prompt": 1, "max_images_per_prompt": 3000, "max_input_tokens": 1048576, "max_output_tokens": 65535, "max_pdf_size_mb": 30, "max_tokens": 65535, "max_video_length": 1, "max_videos_per_prompt": 10, "mode": "chat", "output_cost_per_token": 1.2e-05, "output_cost_per_token_above_200k_tokens": 1.8e-05, "output_cost_per_token_batches": 6e-06, "supports_function_calling": true, "supports_parallel_function_calling": true, "supports_prompt_caching": true, "supports_system_messages": true, "supports_vision": true } } ``` ### Using Aliases Many providers release the same model under multiple names โ€” for example, a `latest` tag and a dated version like `claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929`. Instead of duplicating the entire entry, you can use the `aliases` field: ```json { "claude-sonnet-4-5": { "aliases": ["claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929"], "input_cost_per_token": 3e-06, "output_cost_per_token": 1.5e-05, "litellm_provider": "anthropic", "max_input_tokens": 200000, "max_output_tokens": 64000, "mode": "chat", "supports_function_calling": true, "supports_tool_choice": true } } ``` At load time, each alias is expanded into a top-level entry sharing the same data as the canonical entry. The example above makes both `claude-sonnet-4-5` and `claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929` resolve with the same pricing and capabilities. :::info This is different from [`model_alias_map`](../completion/model_alias.md), which is a runtime SDK/proxy feature for mapping user-facing model names to LiteLLM model identifiers. The `aliases` field here is for the model cost JSON only โ€” it avoids duplicate entries for models that share identical pricing and capabilities. ::: --- Source: [Claudary](https://claudary.paisolsolutions.com/skills/add-model-pricing) ยท https://claudary.paisolsolutions.com
