Llama 3.1 405B API cost calculator

What does Llama 3.1 405B cost to run for your workload, and can you run it on your own hardware? Set your workload below - we compute per-provider API cost live and tell you honestly whether local hardware can run it.

LOCAL ISN'T PRACTICAL

This is where owning stops making sense

Llama 3.1 405B is a 405-billion-parameter model. No rig an individual can buy runs it - so unlike a workstation GPU model, there's no break-even to compute. The honest answer for nearly everyone is the per-provider API cost below.
