Microsoft AI
Microsoft MAI reasoning, coding, image generation, speech synthesis and transcription models, separate from third-party models hosted on Azure.
37 records spanning current and earlier MAI models and original Microsoft speech research. Research-only systems, variants and open components are distinguished. Further specialist families, access contracts and lifecycle details remain under review.
Browse by model typeCapabilities can overlap
Start with the job your model needs to do. Then narrow by capabilities, provider and price.
What does one question cost?
Compare every model with the same request.
Estimate = (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) / 1,000,000. Include conversation history in input and billed reasoning in output. Input-only decision models ignore the output setting; enter all billed input for one decision, including its question and criteria. Media, tools and discounts are separate.
