What is the cheapest Upstage model?

Solar Mini 4 is the lowest blended-price option among tracked active non-embedding models, or among all models if only embeddings are listed: $0.05 input and $0.20 output per million tokens ($0.09 blended). Blended pricing uses 75% input and 25% output for generation models; your cheapest option may differ with your workload.

Which Upstage model has the highest AA Intelligence score?

No Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index results are currently listed for Upstage. Missing results do not establish that a model is worse than a scored model.

How do I calculate monthly Upstage API costs?

Multiply input tokens in millions by the input rate and add output tokens in millions multiplied by the output rate. For example, 20 million input and 5 million output tokens on Solar Mini 4 cost an estimated $2.00 at the listed rates. This excludes tool charges, cache-specific charges, taxes and any endpoint-specific adjustments.

Which Upstage model has the largest context window?

Solar Mini 4 has a listed context window of 524K tokens, the largest among tracked active Upstage models. Context capacity and maximum response length are separate limits; verify both on the model page and in the endpoint documentation.

What is the latest Upstage model in the catalog?

Solar Mini 4 has the most recent listed release date among tracked active Upstage models: 2026-09-23. Models without a usable release date are excluded from this comparison. Catalog release dates do not guarantee immediate API availability.

Do Upstage models support image inputs?

Image-input support is not currently listed for the tracked models. Missing capability data is not proof that image input is unavailable; confirm with the provider's documentation.

Can prompt caching lower Upstage API costs?

3 tracked active models have a listed cached-input rate, including Solar Mini 4, Solar Pro 3, Solar Pro 4. Savings depend on eligible repeated input and the endpoint's cache rules, duration and any write charges.

Do Upstage models support tool calling?

3 tracked active models list tool-calling capabilities, including Solar Mini 4, Solar Pro 3, Solar Pro 4. Verify the exact tool schema and availability with your API endpoint before integrating.

How should I compare Upstage benchmark scores and prices?

Compare scores within the same evaluation: Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, DesignArena Elo, general Arena Elo and MMLU-Pro use different tasks and scales. Missing results are not zeroes. Pair a relevant measured benchmark with input/output pricing and tests of your own workload; the cheapest or highest-scoring model is not automatically the best fit.

Are retired Upstage models included in the price list?

The price list shows active models by default. Turn on Show retired models to include retired catalog entries, where available. A retained model page preserves reference information, not a promise that its API is still available.

Is Upstage an AI lab or an inference host?

Upstage is categorized as an inference host in this catalog. Hosts provide access to models; check each model page for its creator and listed endpoints.
