No model-specific cache eligibility, retained-prefix lifetime or discounted cache rate established in the reviewed documentation.

Image input limits

Access & pricing

Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

API model ID
voyage-multimodal-3
Access
Voyage API key; account-specific usage and rate limits apply.
Regions
Contractual residency and serving-region guarantees require verification.
API endpoint URL
https://api.voyageai.com/v1/multimodalembeddingsSource for API endpoint URL (opens in a new tab)
Total request input
320,000 tokens across up to 1,000 inputsSource for Total request input (opens in a new tab)
Visual context accounting
Context usage: one token per 560 image pixels.Source for Visual context accounting (opens in a new tab)

Context accounting is separate from pixel-based billing.

Rate conditions

  1. The first 200M text tokens are free per account under the published allowance; subsequent input tokens are charged at this rate.
  2. Each image is billed at a minimum of 50,000 and maximum of 2 million pixels. Video frames are individually treated as images where supported. Published allowance: 150B pixels per account. Do not convert this into a flat video-second rate.

Data & enterprise terms

The FAQ describes an opt-out from storage and future training that enables zero-day retention on Voyage-hosted model API endpoints. This is an opt-out option, not a verified account default.

Caching

Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.

01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain

The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.

02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state

Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.

03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate

Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say

No 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.

The record behind the model

Why it is included

Inferred for this exact native release from provider API documentation and the provider-owned public repository inventory. Published tokenizer/configuration files are not model weights. The explicitly open-weight Voyage 4 Nano is excluded; no weight artifact for this identity was identified.
