(3 × $0.125 + $1.00) ÷ 4 = $0.344/1M — the $/1M figure blends input and output at 3:1 — that is the only way models with two different rates can be ranked on one axis. Your actual rate depends on your own input:output mix — input only $0.125, 3:1 $0.344, 1:1 $0.563, output only $1.00 per 1M.
The board shows this model's cheapest measured offer ($0.344/1M); the smaller figure under it is the mean of the 8 offers listed below ($0.602/1M). Add those up and divide — it matches.
Cheapest ranked by blended = (3×in + out) ÷ 4; performance columns show only when a source provides them, never estimated. “Official list” = LiteLLM open pricebook (MIT); “API-measured” = provider/aggregator public APIs.
