Cost Comparison

Based on 100,000 input tokens (50% cached), 5,000 output tokens, and 100 requests.Prices are fetched live from OpenRouter and may include temporary promotional discounts not accounted for in our article and comparison figures.

How this is calculated

Qwen3.7 Max is priced at $1.475 per million input tokens and $4.425 per million output tokens, with an 80% prompt caching discount ($0.295 per million cached reads). That puts it slightly costlier than GLM-5.2 ($1.40/$4.40) but cheaper than Gemini 3.6 Flash on output.

Verdict

Qwen3.7 Max sits at $1.475/M input and $4.425/M output, with an 80% cache discount dropping cached input to $0.295/M. The pricing overlaps GLM-5.2's $1.40/$4.40 nearly exactly, and falls below Gemini 3.6 Flash's $7.50/M on the output row. The 1M context window is the differentiator that makes the cost math work for document-heavy workloads: large persistent contexts fit in a single call without chunking, and the 80% cache discount cuts the stable-prompt portion of the bill by a factor of five. For Qwen-lineage buyers the call is straightforward: the per-token cost is competitive and the context size eliminates the chunking tax.
