  • Pricing varies significantly by model and use case
  • Requires account setup for production access
  • Batch API discounts apply only to non-urgent workloads

It enforces rules on the OpenAPI spec itself in CI — missing descriptions, naming, examples — so a poor spec fails the build rather than becoming poor documentation.

Serverless inference pricing ranges from free for base models up to $4.40 per 1M input tokens for premium models. Video generation costs $0.14 to $3.20 per video depending on resolution.

Source
Together AI: What is Together AI's fine-tuning pricing?
