Quick start
Call GPT 5 Nano with the OpenAI Python SDK:
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI()
response = client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-5-nano",
max_tokens=4000,
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Your prompt here"}]
)
# Cost: ~$0.002000 per call at standard rates

Cheapest viable option: Claude Sonnet 5 at $0.0560/call (-2700% less, 90/100 quality).
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 GPT 5 Nano specifically, that means output tokens cost 8.0x more than input, at $0.40 vs $0.05 per MTok. At this use case’s 8,000/4,000 token split, output accounts for 80% of the $0.002000 per-call cost.

Standard token rates
| Direction | $/MTok | Tokens per call |
|---|---|---|
| Input | $0.05 | 8,000 |
| Output | $0.40 | 4,000 |
Prompt caching: 90% off input tokens
Caching drops input cost from $0.05 to $0.01/MTok. For repeated system prompts, that saves $0.000360 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.
