Ripple 65B Preview API pricing
ricursiveai · Budget price tier · released 2026-11. Prices in USD per 1 million tokens. Data snapshot: 2026-11-12.
A support ticket workload of 100K requests a month costs $60.00 on Ripple 65B Preview; the next cheaper model in the Budget price tier for this workload, Qwen3 Coder Next, does it for $58.00. Ripple 65B Preview has held the same list price since 2026-11-08 and is the 92nd cheapest of 160 models in the Budget price tier. Buying from PrimeIntellect rather than at the price we quote lowers the token price by about 50%. Its name marks it as a preview, beta or experimental release, so both the model and its price are provisional.

Market position
On blended price ($0.48 per 1M tokens at 30% input, 70% output) it is cheaper than 42% of models in the Budget price tier: 92nd cheapest of 160, tied with one other. Across every price tier it is cheaper than 70% of priced text models in the catalogue: 92nd cheapest of 303, tied with one other. No Arena score has been published for Ripple 65B Preview, so this page does not rank it on quality and OptimNow's quality bars do not apply to it. 77 of the 160 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.
Licence, size and capabilities
No licence is recorded for Ripple 65B Preview, so this page does not say whether it can be self-hosted. Its published size is 65B parameters. Listed capabilities: Text, Reasoning, Agents. Filling its 1M context window once costs $0.20 in input tokens at list price.
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 3 different hosts. 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.
Cheapest host: PrimeIntellect at $0.10 input / $0.30 output per 1M tokens, 50% below the price we quote on the blended price (30% input, 70% output). A support ticket workload at 100K requests a month costs $30.00 there against $60.00 at the price we quote, a difference of $30.00 a month. The dearest, GMICloud, charges 2.0x the cheapest.

Monthly cost at 100K requests, by business use case
