Provider names both online models and both chat models in its November 2023 general-release announcement.
Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

Endpoint pricing has not been collected. Check the provider for applicable rates.
Retention, training use, regional processing and enterprise terms have not been summarized for this endpoint.
Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.
The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.
Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.
Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

Caching reviewed 14 Oct 2026No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.
Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.
Closed-weight distribution inference: the provider distinguishes its own PPLX/Sonar offerings from separately served public instruct models. The exact derivative weights were not found in the reviewed official inventory. This does not claim that public Mistral/Llama base weights are proprietary.
