Output is billed at a multiple of input on most models. The Out/In column is that multiple — it matters more than the input price once output dominates your bill.

Across 32 billable models the rate spans $0.01 (glm-4.5-flash) to $120 (glm-4-alltools) per million input tokens — a 12000× spread. Picking the wrong tier is usually the single most expensive mistake here.

Before you compare: Several legacy GLM entries bill far above current-generation rates. Check the table before assuming a model is cheap.
