AI Token Counter

Count tokens, characters & API cost in real time — in any language.

What is a token?

A token is a chunk of text an AI model reads. In English, 1 token is roughly 4 characters or ¾ of a word.

Why do other languages cost more?

Tokenizers are trained mostly on English, so Korean, Japanese, Chinese and many other languages split into more tokens for the same meaning.
