The 88 cent one was the most expensive almost my an order of magnitude. Most of these cost less than a cent to generate - that's why I highlighted the price on the o1 pro output.

Yes, but if you’re averaging cheap and expensive options the expensive ones make a significant difference. Cheaper is bound by 0 so it can’t differ as much from the average.
Also, when you’re talking about how cheap something is, including the price makes sense. I had no idea on many of those models.
If you're interested, you can get cost estimates from my pricing calculator site here: https://www.llm-prices.com/#it=11&ot=1200
That link seeds it with 11 input tokens and 1200 output tokens - 11 input tokens is what most models use for "Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle" and 1200 is the number of output tokens used for some of the larger outputs.
Click on different models to see estimated prices. They range from 0.0168 cents for Amazon Nova Micro (that's less than 2/100ths of a cent) up to 72 cents for o1-pro.
The most expensive model most people would consider is Claude 4 Opus, at 9 cents.
GPT-4o is the upper end of the most common prices, at 1.2 cents.
Thanks
