Why it matters
Mercury 2 lists at $0.25 per million input tokenThe chunk of text a model reads and writes in — roughly three-quarters of a word — and the unit AI usage is billed in.Full definition → and $0.75 per million output, a concrete anchor for costing a high-throughput diffusion model against small autoregressive alternatives.
