List rates are the latest published Cohere API pricing and Gemini API pricing, quoted per million tokens. Official rate sheets: https://anotherwrapper.com/tools/llm-pricing and https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/pricing. Prompt caching, batch APIs, and committed-use discounts can change the invoice. Benchmark scores are from official publications and independent evals, updated as new numbers land.
Command A+ supports up to an unspecified number of output tokens per request, while Gemma 2 27B supports up to an unspecified number of output tokens. Output tokens are usually the expensive half of API pricing, so a higher max output cap is a capability, not a discount.
