Across every price tier it is cheaper than 89% of priced text models in the catalogue: 35th cheapest of 303. No Arena score has been published for Schematron V2 Small, so this page does not rank it on quality and OptimNow's quality bars do not apply to it. 69 of the 159 models we list in the Budget price tier carry one. An unranked model is unmeasured, not poor: the benchmark needs votes, and a recent release has not had time to collect them.

Pricing by host
A host is a company that runs the model and sells it by the token: the model maker, a cloud platform like Amazon Bedrock, Azure or Vertex, or an independent host. One model, several hosts, and often several prices. This model is sold by 1 host. The price we quote elsewhere on this page is marked. We quote one host's rate so that models stay comparable; it is not a recommendation to buy there.
InferenceNet is the only host with a published rate, $0.05 input / $0.23 output per 1M tokens, which is the price we quote.
| Host | Input $/1M | Output $/1M | Precision |
|---|---|---|---|
| InferenceNet (price we quote) | $0.05 | $0.23 | bf16 |
