claude-cost

Calculate Claude API call cost from a usage block.

Cache-aware (cache_creation_input_tokens, cache_read_input_tokens), works for both Anthropic's first-party API and AWS Bedrock model IDs (including ARNs, version suffixes, and cross-region inference profiles). Bring-your-own pricing override. No SDK dependency.

Install

[dependencies]
claude-cost = "0.1"

# optional: deserialize Usage from Anthropic's JSON response shape
claude-cost = { version = "0.1", features = ["serde"] }

Use

use claude_cost::{Usage, default_pricing};

let pricing = default_pricing("claude-sonnet-4-5").unwrap();
let usage = Usage {
    input_tokens: 423,
    output_tokens: 18,
    cache_creation_input_tokens: 0,
    cache_read_input_tokens: 380,
};
let cost = pricing.cost_for(&usage);
// cost = 0.001653 USD

Works the same with Bedrock model identifiers:

use claude_cost::default_pricing;

assert!(default_pricing("anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-v1:0").is_some());
assert!(default_pricing("us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5").is_some());
let arn = "arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1::foundation-model/anthropic.claude-opus-4-7";
assert!(default_pricing(arn).is_some());

Bring your own pricing for unsupported models:

use claude_cost::{Pricing, Usage};

let custom = Pricing {
    input_per_mtok: 1.25,
    output_per_mtok: 5.0,
    cache_read_per_mtok: 0.125,
    cache_write_per_mtok: 1.5625,
};
let usage = Usage { input_tokens: 1_000_000, ..Usage::default() };
let cost = custom.cost_for(&usage); // = 1.25

What it does NOT do

• No HTTP client. This crate doesn't talk to Anthropic or Bedrock.
• No usage tracking / aggregation. Wrap it yourself if you want a ledger.
• No prompt caching logic. Just cost math from the usage numbers Anthropic returns.
• No tokenizer. Pass the token counts the API gave you.

Pricing source

Built-in rates reflect anthropic.com/pricing and aws.amazon.com/bedrock/pricing as of 2026-Q2. Verify before using these for billing — rates change.

Sibling to bedrock-kit on the Python side, which embeds the same logic in a full Bedrock client.
