Get Model Pricing

Use this route when you need pricing, not just catalog visibility. /v1/models/pricing returns a single authoritative pricing object for a model; it does not list prices from every provider. When a model can route across multiple providers, PipeLLM only returns a price if they resolve to one authoritative price. Otherwise, you can select a provider with provider.

Endpoint

GET https://api.pipellm.ai/v1/models/pricing

Query Parameters

Parameter	Required	Description
`model`	yes	Model name to price
`provider`	no	Provider name to select a channel

Notes

This route only supports GET.
model is required.
If there is only one visible provider, the route returns that provider’s price.
If all visible providers produce the same effective price, the route returns one authoritative price.
If visible providers produce different effective prices, the route returns 409 Conflict; use provider to select a provider.

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
`object`	string	Always `"pricing"`
`data.id`	string	Model name used in API requests
`data.display_name`	string	Human-readable label generated from the model name
`data.type_target`	string	Target protocol family for routing
`data.provider`	string	Resolved provider when the request identifies one provider or explicitly selects one
`data.pricing`	object	Authoritative pricing object

Ambiguous Pricing

PipeLLM returns 409 Conflict when:

the same model matches multiple visible mappings
those mappings have different prices
and you did not select a provider with provider

That behavior is intentional. The API does not fabricate a representative price when the routing layer can legitimately choose different-priced mappings.
