Kimi K2.7 pricing: $0.74/1M input tokens, $3.5/1M output tokens, $0.15/1M cached tokens.
Kimi K2.7 is Moonshot's mid-range model, best suited for coding, long-context, agentic tasks. It costs $0.74 per 1M input tokens and $3.5 per 1M output tokens, with a 262K token context window. At typical usage (10K input tokens, 2K output tokens per call, 1,000 calls per day), Kimi K2.7 costs approximately $432 per month. With prompt caching enabled at a 80% discount, cached input drops to $0.15/1M tokens — significant for applications with repeated system prompts. For lower costs, DeepSeek V4 Pro (DeepSeek) offers input at $0.435/1M. For higher capability, GPT-5.4 Mini (OpenAI) costs $0.75/1M input. Kimi K2.7 sits in the sweet spot between cost and capability. Use it for production features that need reliable quality — coding assistance, content generation, data analysis, and multi-step reasoning — without paying premium model rates. On a per-request basis, sending 1,000 input tokens to Kimi K2.7 costs $0.00074, and generating 1,000 output tokens costs $0.0035. A typical chatbot exchange (500 tokens in, 300 tokens out) runs about $0.00142 per message. At scale, small per-request cost differences compound quickly — a model that costs 2x more per token costs 2x more at any volume.
