Compare AI model pricing, benchmarks, and capabilities
Prices shift and new models land every few weeks — quietly enough that you can end up overpaying, or stuck on a model a cheaper one has already beaten, without ever finding out. Modelglass tracks every change and sources every figure, so you hear it from us, not your invoice.

"My data story goes back further than this project — superannuation reporting, then eleven years at a Melbourne tech company, always with the same focus: serving data that had utility, not just data that existed. Modelglass is that same discipline applied to AI model pricing."

Are you paying too much for AI?
It's hard to know. A provider quietly raises a price and it shows up on your bill before it shows up anywhere else. A cheaper model ships that handles your task just as well, and you keep paying for the expensive one out of habit. A benchmark score gets quoted with no mention of what it actually measured. Modelglass puts that information into one structured, sourced registry — so the answer is a lookup, not a guess.

Compare
Prices, capabilities and architectures side by side.
Verify
Know where the data came from and when it was checked.
Integrate
Use the registry through the API and MCP.
Track
See how models and pricing change over time.
Built for
For anyone paying for AI
You don't need to read code to use this — see what you're paying, what it should cost, and whether a cheaper model already does the job.
For developers
Stop guessing which model fits your budget and task — see API pricing, context windows and capabilities side by side before you integrate.
For AI engineers
Don't hand-wire pricing checks into every agent — pull structured model metadata straight from the API and MCP server.
For teams
Know the real cost and capability gap before you commit to an inference provider, not after the first invoice.
For researchers
Don't take a quoted benchmark score on faith — inspect where it came from and how it was measured.
For agents
Query current model pricing and capability data programmatically — no scraping, no stale caches.

The data layer for model routing.
Modelglass doesn't route your traffic — it keeps your router honest. It's a provenance-tracked feed of current model pricing and independently reported benchmark scores, served over REST and MCP, so the router you build can pick the cheapest model that actually clears the quality bar. Prices are append-only with a source on every entry: when a provider changes a price, your routing table finds out — not three weeks later.
Proof, not promise: the Modelglass Cost-Aware Router — a VS Code extension live on the Marketplace — already does exactly this, picking the cheapest model that clears the right benchmark bar for your task.
