FAQ
Paste your prompt into the counter on this page. Perplexity does not publish the sonar tokenizer, so the count is a calibrated estimate based on text length, language, and structure. Treat it as planning guidance rather than an exact billing number.
sonar costs $1.00 per 1 million input tokens and $1.00 per 1 million output tokens, based on the community-maintained LiteLLM pricing dataset checked 2026-07-01.
sonar has a context window of 128,000 tokens, which is roughly 96,000 English words of combined prompt and response. The counter above shows how much of that window your text consumes.
No. It is a clearly labeled estimate, because Perplexity has not released a public tokenizer for sonar. Estimates are usually within a reasonable range for English text but can drift for code, JSON, or non-English languages.
