Why We Show This

Transparency matters. We believe users should understand the infrastructure costs behind the service they use.

Running AI analysis on thousands of news headlines daily requires significant computational resources. Every headline classification involves API calls to advanced language models, data storage, and server processing.

By showing you these costs, we aim to build trust and demonstrate the value of supporter subscriptions, which help us maintain and improve this service for everyone.

Understanding AI Costs

What drives costs?

  • Token usage: Number of words processed by the AI model
  • Model selection: More advanced models cost more per token
  • Processing frequency: How often we analyze new headlines
  • Database storage: Storing classifications and metadata

How we optimize costs:

  • Caching frequently accessed data
  • Using efficient prompts to reduce token usage
  • Batch processing where possible
  • Database query optimization and indexing
