What drives financial analysis cost

Financial analysis carries large structured inputs (statements, tables, time series) and produces detailed reasoning as output, so it is expensive on both sides. Tabular data is token-dense, and formatting choices in how you serialize a table can change input cost by a wide margin before you have changed anything about the model.

For Claude Haiku 4.5 specifically, that means output tokens cost 5.0x more than input, at $5.00 vs $1.00 per MTok. At this use case’s 8,000/4,000 token split, output accounts for 71% of the $0.0280 per-call cost.

Prompt caching: 90% off input tokens

Caching drops input cost from $1.00 to $0.10/MTok. For repeated system prompts, that saves $0.007200 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.
