LLM Newsroom
Every model launch and price move across every provider, newest first — who shipped, what it costs, how much prices changed, and when.
Model launches
205
tracked models dated at release — a launch is a news event in its own right
Price changes
20
every point in our price history where a tracked price actually moved
Price drops
13
blended price went down — cheaper than the day before
Increases
7
blended price went up — the moves that show up on invoices
Context changes
8
a tracked model's context window was resized mid-life
Derived from our model catalog + price-history dataset. Price changes and drops/increases count price moves only — a launch is never counted as a price move. Verified = our twice-daily checks against the official page; reconstructed = backfilled from public archives. Machine-readable: /news/feed.json · Atom · Want a heads-up? Set a price alert →
Want the bigger picture rather than the log? Pricing trends aggregates these moves — how often prices change, typical move size, and which providers compete hardest on price.

Price drops are green, hikes are red — price moves carry old → new per side, so you can see which token side moved. Launches carry the price the model listed at.
