Definition
Cost per conversation shows what each Quri chat actually costs to run. Every answer uses a language model, and that has a real price. Quri tracks the model cost of a conversation and makes it visible, so you can see which questions are cheap and which heavy ones add up, with no hidden meter.
How to do this in Quri
- Have a conversation with Quri in /app/chat.
- Open the conversation to see its tracked model cost.
- Compare a quick question against a long, multi-turn thread to see the difference.
- Use what you learn to keep heavy back-and-forth sessions in check.
Frequently asked
- What does cost per conversation measure?
- It tracks the language-model cost of a conversation — the price of the model calls behind your answers — so the spend behind chat is visible rather than hidden.
- Why do some conversations cost more?
- Longer threads and bigger context cost more to process. Quri tracks each one so you can see where the spend goes.
