Calibrated · measured on the vendor's tokenizer · 2026-06-10 Auto-counts as you type

Counts use a chars-per-token calibration measured on the vendor's own published tokenizer (tencent/Hunyuan-A13B-Instruct, 2026-06-10). English prose is typically within a few percent; code and non-Latin scripts tokenize heavier. For billing-exact counts use the vendor's count-tokens API.

Hunyuan TurboS API pricing FAQ.

Practical Hunyuan TurboS pricing questions, with the official CNY table separated from calculator assumptions.

Q · 01 What is Hunyuan TurboS priced at today? +
Tencent Cloud's official Hunyuan pricing page lists Y0.80/M input and Y2.00/M output for Hunyuan TurboS. AI//COST stores that as $0.119/M and $0.2976/M using the Y6.7209/USD conversion rate.
Q · 02 Does Tencent publish a cache-hit discount for TurboS? +
No. The public pricing row for Hunyuan TurboS does not show a separate prompt-cache or cache-hit rate. This page therefore treats cached input the same as normal input instead of fabricating a discount.
Q · 03 How does TurboS compare with Hunyuan Lite? +
Both left Tencent's price lists in August 2026, so this is now a comparison between two legacy rows. Hunyuan Lite was the free, rate-limited entry tier; TurboS was the paid baseline with more headroom. If you are choosing today rather than maintaining an existing integration, the live equivalents are A13B for cheap traffic and Hy3 for production.
Q · 04 How does TurboS compare with T1? +
Hunyuan T1 is pricier at $0.1488/M input and $0.5952/M output and is positioned for deeper reasoning. TurboS is cheaper and better aligned with high-volume chat or support traffic.
Q · 05 Is TurboS covered by Tencent's free trial tokens? +
Tencent's access docs say new API users get a shared 1M token free quota across Hunyuan models. The quote tiles here show the standard public list price after that shared allowance is consumed.
Q · 06 Does this page include tax or enterprise discounts? +
No. AI//COST stores Tencent's public pre-tax list price and converts it to USD for cross-vendor comparison. Enterprise rebates, negotiated contracts, and region-specific billing are outside this page.
