About

New models launch weekly and prices shift constantly. Modelglass is the layer that decides for you: it sits in front of your prompt, knows what every model costs and what each one is good for, and picks the lowest-cost one that can do the task. Read the data yourself, or wire it in and let it choose. One product, three ways it earns its place: 1. It informs the user On its own, the registry answers one question well: which model is right for this task, and what it costs. People use it to choose directly; teams wire it into their own product so their customers get the same answer. 2. It picks the lowest-cost model for the task Wired into a router, the same data selects the cheapest model that still clears the bar for the job - and shows the cost before it spends it. Bring your own keys; nothing routes through us. 3. It keeps businesses better informed Prices and specs move constantly. The registry and its news feed update daily, so a price cut or a new release reaches you early - not on your next invoice.

Key Features

Sourced, timestamped pricing on every model

Not scraped from stale blog posts. Every price carries a source and an update date, across a free comparison site spanning 5 model types.

Capability ratings tied to named benchmarks

Compare page shows rating axes linked to specific benchmarks (GenEval, DPG-Bench, CLIPScore, T2I-CompBench, Artificial Analysis Elo), not just a price table

Vendor-claim vs independently-verified transparency

Footnotes distinguish what a vendor claims from what Modelglass has independently verified.

Paid MCP pricing feed for developers

live, normalised pricing endpoint (via MPC) that plugs directly into a team's own AI routing logic to programmatically pick the cheapest that meets their needs

VS Code extension with cost-aware routing (Pro tier)

routes a task to the cheapest model that clears a user's own pre-set qualifiers (via a .modelglass/routing-rules.json config), with automatic fallback retry

iOS Compare tool

a cost calculator (Model A vs Model B, monthly cost, plain-English savings line) plus "closest alternatives" browsing with quantified price-difference badges
