InferIndex tools (5)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • cheapestFree

    Cheapest current API offers for one model across direct providers and aggregators, in USD per 1M tokens (input, output, blended 3:1). Stale prices, and flex/batch tiers, are excluded by default. Optional filters (context, tools, JSON, vision, region, no training on prompts, open sign-up) and usage (tokens per request, requests per day) to get an estimated cost per request and per month. Returns the winner and the first offers.

  • compare_providersFree

    Current offers for one model, one line per provider and source (direct or via an aggregator), cheapest first (10 by default), with price, context, quantization, published conditions (training on prompts, data regions, sign-up) and reliability from official status pages.

  • estimate_costFree

    Estimated cost of a workload on one model at each provider: cost per request, and per month if requests_per_day is given, taking the provider's tiered pricing and prompt-cache price into account. Offers sorted by estimated cost, cheapest first.

  • price_historyFree

    Price history of one model: every offer tracked by InferIndex (daily or weekly min/max/last price in USD, or raw price changes), plus the official price of the model's lab over time. Give either days, or from/to (YYYY-MM-DD), or at (a date) for the prices in effect that day.

  • search_modelsFree

    Find the exact id of an LLM tracked by InferIndex from a name or partial name (e.g. 'deepseek', 'qwen3 max', 'claude opus'). Returns matching model ids and names, best match first.

What the publisher says

From the InferIndex repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

InferIndex

InferIndex finds the cheapest provider for a given LLM, across 70+ tracked pricing sources — direct provider APIs and aggregators/routers — with price history and promotion detection.

Live API: https://api.inferindex.dev

Service status: https://status.inferindex.dev (external uptime monitoring)

This repository holds the public documentation, examples and (eventually) a client SDK for that API. The backend itself — collection, parsers, data model — lives in a separate private repository.

curl "https://api.inferindex.dev/cheapest?model=deepseek/deepseek-v3.2"

Example response as of 2026-09-18 — prices, providers and statuses change.

{
  "query": "deepseek/deepseek-v3.2",
  "model": { "id": "deepseek/deepseek-v3.2", "name": "DeepSeek: DeepSeek V3.2" },
  "other_matches": ["deepseek/deepseek-v3.2-exp", "deepseek/deepseek-v3.2-exp-thinking"],
  "sort": "blended",
  "cheapest": {
    "provider": "Nous Portal",
    "via": "nous",
    "tier": "standard",
    "input_per_1M": 0.2088,
    "output_per_1M": 0.3096,
    "cache_read_per_1M": 0.0216,
    "blended_per_1M": 0.234,
    "currency": "USD",
    "quantization": "unknown",
    "quantization_source": "unknown",
    "context_length": 163840,
    "promo": false,
    "also_via": [],
    "unverified": []
  },
  "offers": [
    { "provider": "Nous Portal", "via": "nous", "blended_per_1M": 0.234, "…": "…" },
    { "provider": "GMICloud", "via": "aggregator", "blended_per_1M": 0.234, "…": "…" }
  ],
  "hidden_tiers": { "flex": 1 },
  "filters_unknown": {},
  "strict": false
}

Prices are in USD per million tokens, converted at the day's ECB rate when the source publishes another currency. blendedper1M is (3 × input + output) / 4, a rough proxy for a typical chat workload. Each offer appears once, at its cheapest source: via is "direct" or the aggregator it comes from, and alsovia lists other sources selling the same offer. promo is false unless a promotion was detected, in which case confidence and pricebefore_promo are filled in.

Status

Early / actively developed. The API is public and free to use, without authentication, but there is no uptime guarantee, no versioned API contract yet, and endpoints or response shapes may change. If you build something on it, expect to adjust when they do. Feedback and issues are welcome.

Service status: https://status.inferindex.dev (external uptime monitoring). It shows current and past availability; it is not an uptime guarantee.

Why

Provider pricing pages disagree, change without notice, and rarely show what resellers actually charge for the same model. InferIndex collects prices directly from 70+ sources on their own schedule (from hourly to daily depending on the source), stores every change, and answers "who is cheapest for model X right now" from that history — client requests never trigger a live call to a provider.

Data freshness and limits

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

InferIndex: common questions

Is InferIndex MCP server safe?
Yes, by our scan: it is graded A (89/100). Read the InferIndex safety report
How do I install InferIndex?
It runs remotely at mcp.inferindex.dev. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop with the snippets above, or call it through the mcp.market gateway without installing anything.
Does InferIndex need an API key?
Not as far as the registry entry and our scan can tell: no credentials are declared or required.
Is InferIndex maintained?
The last commit was 39 days ago (2026-09-26). The latest release is v1.0.0.
Is InferIndex up?
100% of our last 28 checks got an answer. We check remote servers about four times a day.
What can I use instead of InferIndex?
Servers from other publishers that do the same job: Grandet MCP server, LLM Sandbox MCP server and freellmpool MCP server.
How does InferIndex compare with other AI and agents MCP servers?
safety score 89/100 (higher than 83% of 4,460 AI and agents servers); tools 5 (the typical AI and agents server has 6); tools that change things 0% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
