What is Token Counter?
Token Counter is a specialized utility tool designed to help developers and AI practitioners accurately count tokens and estimate costs when working with Large Language Models. The tool supports multiple LLM models from leading providers like OpenAI and Anthropic, offering real-time token counting capabilities and precise cost estimations for API usage.
Using the official tokenization methods recommended by model providers, such as OpenAI's tiktoken library, the tool ensures high accuracy in token counting across different languages and character types. It provides immediate feedback on token count and associated input costs, making it an essential resource for planning and optimizing LLM-based applications.
Features
- Real-time Token Counting: Instant token calculation as you type
- Cost Estimation: Calculate input costs for API usage
- Multi-Model Support: Compatible with various OpenAI and Anthropic models
- Multilingual Support: Handles text input in any language
- Special Character Processing: Proper handling of emojis and special characters
Use Cases
- API cost estimation for LLM applications
- Token limit verification for model inputs
- Development planning for AI applications
- Budget estimation for LLM-based projects
- Text optimization for model interactions
FAQs
-
What is a token in the context of LLMs?
A token is a unit of text that an LLM processes. It can be a word, part of a word, or even a single character, depending on the model's tokenization method. -
How accurate is this token counting tool?
For OpenAI models, we use their exact recommended tiktoken library, so the accuracy should be incredibly high. For Anthropic models, we use an older method as Anthropic has not yet provided updated tokenization information for their latest models. -
Does the tool support multiple languages?
Yes, the tool supports multiple languages. While the interface is in English, the tokenization process works the same way for all languages, and it will tokenize text accurately according to the selected model's method.
