Liquid AI API pricing ranges from $0 to $0.030 per 1M input tokens. Output tokens cost more than input on every model. Prices are per 1 million tokens (1M ≈ 750,000 words). Use the calculator above to estimate your monthly spend at your actual workload.
LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct is the lowest-priced Liquid AI model with public pricing at $0/1M input tokens. It suits high-volume tasks where cost matters most — classification, extraction, summarization, and similar workloads that don't need frontier reasoning.
LFM2-24B-A2B is Liquid AI's highest-tier model at $0.030/1M input. It delivers the most sophisticated reasoning, instruction-following, and nuance. For workloads that don't require frontier performance, a mid-tier model typically cuts inference costs substantially.
LFM2.5-1.2B-Thinking support deep reasoning mode, which improves performance on multi-step coding, debugging, and code review. For simpler autocomplete or snippet generation, a faster, cheaper model often delivers acceptable quality at a fraction of the cost.
Yes — Liquid AI supports prompt caching (discounts for repeated context) and batch processing (accept a delay, cut costs ~50%). These rates appear in the table above under "Cached /1M" and "Batch /1M." Caching pays off quickly if your prompts share a long system prompt or document prefix across many calls.
Liquid AI has historically adjusted prices when launching new model generations, often cutting rates to stay competitive. Buzzi.ai snapshots pricing daily — you can subscribe to price-drop alerts on any Liquid AI model using the "Alert me" button on its detail page.

LFM2.5-1.2B-Thinking offer an extended thinking or reasoning mode. The model spends extra compute "thinking" before answering — slower and more expensive, but meaningfully better on complex, multi-step problems. Standard mode is faster and cheaper for routine tasks.
