139143Prompt caching uses the following pricing multipliers relative to base input token rates:
140144
141| Cache operation | Multiplier | Duration |
142| -------------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
143| 5-minute cache write | 1.25x base input price | Cache valid for 5 minutes |
144| 1-hour cache write | 2x base input price | Cache valid for 1 hour |
145| Cache read (hit) | 0.1x base input price | Same duration as the preceding write |
145| Cache operation | Multiplier | Duration |
146| -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------ |
147| 5-minute cache write | 1.25x base input price | Cache valid for 5 minutes |
148| 1-hour cache write | 2x base input price | Cache valid for 1 hour |
149| Cache read (hit) | 0.1x base input price (0.025x on Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1) | Same duration as the preceding write |
146150
147Cache write tokens are charged when content is first stored. Cache read tokens are charged when a subsequent request retrieves the cached content. A cache hit costs 10% of the standard input price, which means caching pays off after one cache read for the 5-minute duration (1.25x write), or after two cache reads for the 1-hour duration (2x write).
151Cache write tokens are charged when content is first stored. Cache read tokens are charged when a subsequent request retrieves the cached content. A cache hit costs 10% of the standard input price, which means caching pays off after one cache read for the 5-minute duration (1.25x write), or after two cache reads for the 1-hour duration (2x write). On Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1, a cache hit costs 2.5% of the standard input price ($0.25 USD per million tokens).
