How much does PromptLayer cost?

PromptLayer publishes its list price on its own site. The WorkForce Labor Index does not republish vendor list prices; instead it publishes a transaction-anchored market rate for each category. The llm evaluation category rate is currently held pending input-gate clearance (real eval execution + measured buyer outcomes). Use the WLI methodology to benchmark vendor quotes when the band publishes.
