COST INTELLIGENCE

Model the workload now. Publish the rate when it is official.

A commercial-intent tool that refuses false precision.

Choose a workflow scenario, adjust the assumptions, and see exactly why a verified total is still blocked. Once pricing exists, the same record can calculate per-request, daily, monthly, and comparison costs.

ASTRA COST CALCULATOR

Choose a scenario

PRICING GATED
Official pricing is not published.
PER REQUEST
PER DAY
30 DAYS
Blocked by design: Astra input, cached-input, output, reasoning, subscription, and quota rates are not publicly documented. The scenario numbers are planning assumptions, not Astra facts.

SCENARIO LIBRARY

Six workflows ready for official rates.

Scenario templates make launch-day pricing useful immediately without pretending that a token count is a product limit.

Coding agent

Repository context, planning, edits, and verification across a bounded session.

Input / request
12,000 tokens
Output / request
3,000 tokens
Requests / day
20
Actual context and tool usage are not known.

Research task

A source-grounded synthesis with explicit review and citation steps.

Input / request
18,000 tokens
Output / request
5,000 tokens
Requests / day
8
Browse, retrieval, and verification costs are not included.

Document analysis

A bounded document review with a structured output and human check.

Input / request
25,000 tokens
Output / request
4,000 tokens
Requests / day
12
File limits, parsing, and multimodal pricing are unknown.

Customer support

A concise response workflow with retrieval and escalation rules.

Input / request
2,500 tokens
Output / request
700 tokens
Requests / day
500
Production retrieval, moderation, and support-tool costs are excluded.

Batch processing

A repeatable transformation with sample validation and failure handling.

Input / request
8,000 tokens
Output / request
1,600 tokens
Requests / day
1,000
Batch discounts and quotas are not announced.

Long-running agent

A multi-step workflow with checkpoints, tools, and explicit stop conditions.

Input / request
40,000 tokens
Output / request
8,000 tokens
Requests / day
4
Long-horizon context and tool pricing are unknown.

ACTIVATION CHECKLIST

Rates are only the beginning.

A serious estimate also needs the units, cached-input behavior, reasoning treatment, quotas, discounts, and a stated workflow assumption.

  1. Record the official price table.Keep source URL, currency, effective date, and unit in structured data.
  2. Separate verified from assumed.Usage assumptions belong to the scenario; product limits belong to the fact ledger.
  3. Show caveats beside totals.Do not hide excluded tools, retrieval, taxes, discounts, or rate limits in a footnote.
