What drives product descriptions cost
Catalogue-scale generation: modest output per item, multiplied across thousands of SKUs. Per-call price is small and total spend is set by catalogue size, which makes this a batch API workload almost by definition: descriptions are rarely needed within seconds. Shared brand and formatting context belongs in the cached prefix.
For Claude Fable 5.1 specifically, that means output tokens cost 5.0x more than input, at $50.00 vs $10.00 per MTok. At this use case’s 500/1,500 token split, output accounts for 94% of the $0.0800 per-call cost.
