# AutoGPT
## Pricing
To access this model through the GPT-4 API, it will cost:
$0.03 per 1k prompt request tokens*
$0.06 per 1k completion response tokens*
*1k tokens is equivalent to ~750 words.*
## Cost Analysis
GPT-4 has context window of 8K(no of words it uses max)
Assuming that each action maxes out the context window of 8,000 tokens, with 80% being prompts and 20% being results.
For 8,000 tokens:
Prompts (80%): 6,400 tokens
Results (20%): 1,600 tokens
Cost of prompts:
= 6,400 tokens x $0.03/1,000 tokens
= $0.192
Cost of results:
= 1,600 tokens x $0.06/1,000 tokens
= $0.096
Total cost per step:
= Cost of prompts + Cost of results
= $0.288
It's not uncommon for Auto-GPT to take an average of 50 steps to complete a small task.
So, the cost of completing a single task would be:
Task cost: 50 steps x $0.288 perstep = $14.4
