How the calculator works?

Using this tool, you can calculate the number of tokens in a sentence for all the popular LLMs in the market. Also, the tool will provide you with an estimated cost, character number, and a color-coded breakdown of the number of tokens in the test sample.

Explaining tokenization and tokens?

While we use tokens for LLMs, most people are not informed about what it is and the process behind them. When an LLM learns or generates information, it undergoes a process called tokenization, where it converts text into tokens.

As LLMs work with vector data, a tokenizer turns all the text into tokens (a form of vector data). These tokens help an LLM to recognize patterns and understand context better. It is also important to mention that tokens are different for both input and output.

While both types of tokens work the same way, the cost for using them is different. Input tokens cost a bit compared to output tokens, but input tokens are used sparingly as your AI model does not have to be constantly trained.

How are tokens counted?

As mentioned earlier, different LLMs have their own system of counting tokens in a text. Hence, when you use our calculator above, you may find different results for the same sentence. 

A token can be one or many characters, a word, punctuation, a space, or even an emoji. This process varies from one LLM to another.

Our calculator will also give you the breakdown of the number of tokens in the test sample ,but also point out the character number so that you can compare the process. 

Why are tokens important for you and your business?

Tokens are certainly important for LLMs, but that significance also extends to you and your business. As the world gets more and more advanced, businesses are following the same trend by adopting AI-powered tools like chatbots and AI Agents.

So, by understanding the usage of tokens, you can learn about tokens at a deeper level. This knowledge can help you improve your business when it comes to dealing with an LLM.

By diving at a deeper level, you can understand the usage of different types of tokens such as input or output tokens. Also, you can minimize costs if you understand tokens better and even improve the efficiency of your LLMs over time.
