Input Token
Simon BudziakCTO
An Input Token represents a unit of text (roughly 0.75 words) that is sent to the AI model. This includes your prompt, any system instructions, and any context or documents you provide.
Input tokens are typically cheaper than output tokens but are critical for calculating the context window usage—the limit on how much information the model can remember at once.
