AI Streaming Cost Calculator Guide for Real-Time Chatbots
Streaming chatbot costs compound when real-time generation is not budgeted. This guide defines a streaming cost planning workflow.
Implementation Steps
- Define streaming workload: concurrent users, average tokens, and response time.
- Calculate streaming costs: per-token pricing multiplied by concurrency.
- Set budget thresholds for peak and average usage.
- Optimize by routing to cheaper models for non-critical streaming.
