What makes Penny Owl special?

Penny Owl is the internet's AI price-quote hub — the reference index where the lowest verified API prices for AI video, image and Brain models are gathered in one place. Compare AI brains, images and videos with pay-as-you-go API prices and marked subscription prices across 26 aggregators. Find the lowest checked prices by model, image size or video resolution, alongside combined quality rankings from matching results across 14 leaderboards run by 7 organisations, detailed seller comparisons and saved favorites.

We're a free nonprofit community project from Benny Labs Foundation. There are no owners or shareholders taking a cut, and everything beyond the cost of running Penny Owl goes back into lower prices. Our purpose is simple: help you spend less and choose wisely.

Numbers show consecutive family positions, ordered by each family's highest-ranked model. Use the arrows to show or hide other family members; your choices are remembered in this browser. Each model keeps its own benchmark rank, evidence and prices on its detail page.

Combined ranking calculated from boards checked . Families are ordered by their best member's combined score (lower is better); a model backed by fewer leaderboards is pulled toward the middle, so it cannot win on thin evidence.

Prices show the cheapest verified offer in each column. — means no comparable current quote is verified. Price and speed do not affect the combined quality rank. Native audio is included; one minute is priced from supported clips.

The subscription icon means a calculated USD price using the largest annual subscription and full credit use, or OmniRogue’s largest top-up with its required paid plan extra. Hover for the price basis. The coming-soon icon marks a price Penny Owl will offer directly. Expiry rules vary. Click the aggregator name for its terms and calculations. Some aggregator links include a referral code that supports Penny Owl's free project; it never changes a price or a ranking.

Some seller links include a referral code that supports Penny Owl's free project at no cost to you. Referrals never change a price, a ranking, or which seller is cheapest.

Opinions, not tests. A model needs at least 5 opinions; ads, bots and repeat comments are removed. Fairness: each score starts with 20 votes at the crowd average, so models with few opinions stay near the middle until more people agree. One-time snapshot, October 2026.

  1. Combined ranking. We average matching results from 14 leaderboards run by 7 organisations — up to 7 vote on Brain, 4 on Images and 3 on Videos. First becomes 0, last becomes 100. Each organisation gets one equal vote; at least two are needed. Models backed by fewer organisations are pulled toward the middle, so a thin result cannot win by luck. Missing or incomparable results are skipped. Brain includes intelligence, coding/design and SVG tests. Lower scores rank higher.
  2. Models you can use. We show up to 30 ranked models offered by our listed aggregators. Exact versions stay separate; Mini never inherits the full model's rank. Prices and speed do not change the quality rank.
  3. Fresh checks. Connected prices and 14 matching ranking boards are recalculated at each price check, across all three categories. Failed ranking reads retain their earlier evidence and dates. New versions and other prices need verification. Failed or over-48-hour quotes are excluded. — means no verified quote. Sale icons mean On Sale; final charges may vary.

  1. Best prices. Compare input/output per million tokens, each image size, or 60 seconds of video with native audio. Each column picks its cheapest verified offer. Tied sellers stay blank; click the model for every seller. A minute can include several clips; * shows a nearby actual resolution.
  2. Subscription prices. The subscription icon means the largest annual plan, calculated in USD with all monthly credits used. OmniRogue uses its largest top-up instead, with the required paid plan extra. Check the aggregator page for the required spend, expiry rules and offer terms.
  3. Your shortcuts. Favorite highlights yellow; Disappointed highlights red. Your browser remembers both. Aggregators with more cheapest-price appearances come first. Generate through the chosen seller's app or API, as the offer allows.
