Do I understand their pricing correctly? This is $10 per month for a developer account PLUS you pay $1.49/M for output tokens and $0.99/M for input tokens on Qwen 3.8 27b with a 128k context?

EDIT: Or, maybe it's just token pricing, but $10 is the minimum? Maybe it's that.

No. You buy a minimum of $10 worth of credit, then use it at $1.49/M rate. There is no recurring charge.

There is a separate subscription based plan, which is sold out now.

Got it. But, they also charge the same for cached tokens, so that probably closes the gap on Foundation models quite a bit.

I guess Cerebras didnt intend the model for agentic coding but rather for small one shot task like title generation. At least thats why I use the free tier for.

my hunch is that their hardware can't cache
