openai/o3-proModel overview
Understand the model before estimating your workload.
Use the model ID openai/o3-pro through OpenRouter. The prices and limits on this page apply to that specific listing, with source data checked on 2026-10-12.
OpenRouter o3-pro has a published context window of 200,000 tokens. The maximum output for this channel is 100,000 tokens. Budget context space for your prompt, conversation history, retrieved material, and the response. Context capacity and output limits are different; your input and response must fit within the request limits. A larger window does not make those tokens free.
This listing covers o3-pro through OpenRouter. Its model ID and rates belong to that channel. Check routing and endpoint availability before treating a direct API and a routed call as interchangeable.

Planning estimates using the listed token rates, with no caching, retries, batch discount, or tool fees. These examples assume text usage; images, audio, video, and higher rate tiers can change your bill. Each agent step is a separate request.
Use your own workloadHow billing works
The details that turn a token rate into an actual bill.
Separate input from output
For OpenRouter o3-pro, multiply input and output token counts by their respective rates, then divide by one million. Conversation history and retrieved context contribute to input usage each time they are sent.
A missing rate is not free usage
If a price, discount, or limit is marked not published, confirm it with the provider before estimating spend. The calculator does not invent a separate cache discount when no cached-input rate is available.
Check discounts and rate tiers
No batch multiplier is applied to the examples on this page. Check the pricing source before assuming an asynchronous job receives a discount. Review the provider's pricing terms for workload-specific conditions.
Account for the complete workflow
Retries, follow-up calls, and agent tool loops increase request counts. Search, storage, and other tool charges can be billed separately from model inference. Use actual API usage logs to calibrate a budget before scaling traffic.
