Enterprise AI Agent Pricing & Token Economics Index 2026
Comprehensive analysis of LLM inference expenditure across 150 production enterprise AI systems. Benchmarks Google Gemini 2.5, GPT-4o, and Claude 3.5 Sonnet token costs, prompt caching economics, and multi-agent latency.
- [1]Prompt caching delivers an average 78% monthly token cost reduction for high-context enterprise RAG workflows.
- [2]Google Gemini 2.5 Flash achieves the lowest cost-per-task efficiency ($0.075/1M tokens) while maintaining 92% benchmark accuracy on structured extraction.
- [3]Multi-agent orchestration workflows incur a median 2.4x latency increase over single-pass LLM prompts without async queuing.
