Publisher summary· verbatim

arXiv:2603.23971v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Developers and consumers increasingly choose reasoning models (RMs) based on their listed API prices. However, how accurately do these prices reflect actual inference costs? We conduct the first systematic study of this question, evaluating 8
