Cheapest viable option: GPT 5.6 Luna at $0.000220/call (86% less, 91/100 quality).

What drives content moderation cost

The highest-volume, lowest-per-call task on this list: short input, a label out. Per-call cost is nearly negligible, which means total cost is a function of throughput alone. At moderation volume the difference between tiers is the entire budget, and a fast-tier model handling the clear cases with escalation for the ambiguous ones beats one model handling everything.

For Gemini 2.5 Computer Use specifically, that means output tokens cost 8.0x more than input, at $10.00 vs $1.25 per MTok. At this use case’s 500/100 token split, output accounts for 62% of the $0.001625 per-call cost.

Prompt caching: 0% off input tokens

Caching drops input cost from $1.25 to $1.25/MTok. For repeated system prompts, that saves $0.0000 per call.

Batch API: 50% off all tokens

Submit requests asynchronously and receive 50% off all token costs. This works best for offline pipelines where latency requirements are flexible.
