//beforeyouship — LLM Cost Modeling From Your Editor
@Indiegoing

Query realistic LLM cost models without leaving your editor. beforeyouship models the **true monthly cost** of an LLM app architecture — retries, prompt caching, batch discounts, infra overhead, and 3×/10× growth — across GPT-5.x, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and more. Not a token calculator: a planning tool for the design phase, before you commit to a stack. **No API key needed to try it** — demo mode covers the six free-tier models. A Pro key from [beforeyouship.dev](https://beforeyouship.dev) unlocks the full 18-model catalog. ## What you can ask - "How much will a RAG chatbot cost at 10,000 requests/day?" - "Compare Claude Haiku vs Gemini Flash pricing for my workload" - "What's the cheapest model for a multi-step agent at scale?" - "Show me current per-token prices for Anthropic models" ## Tools ### `estimate_cost` Full cost model for an architecture at a given usage level. Returns Naive / Realistic / Worst Case monthly cost per model, 3×/10× growth scenarios, and an opinionated recommendation with reasoning. ### `get_model_prices` Current per-1M-token pricing — input, output, cached input, batch — with context windows and staleness metadata. ### `list_archetypes` Seven preset architecture patterns (simple chatbot, chatbot with history, RAG pipeline, multi-model router, coding assistant, document processor, multi-step agent) used as starting points for estimates. ## Setup **Claude Code:** ​```bash claude mcp add --transport http beforeyouship https://beforeyouship.dev/api/mcp ​``` **Cursor / other clients** — add a remote server: ​```json { "mcpServers": { "beforeyouship": { "type": "streamable-http", "url": "https://beforeyouship.dev/api/mcp" } } } ​``` Add an `Authorization: Bearer bys_...` header with a Pro key for the full catalog. ## Try it > Estimate the monthly cost of a RAG pipeline at 10,000 requests/day
