Where these figures come from
Every xAI figure is read from one vendor page:
The weekly check re-reads each page and records any change with both the old and new figure. Prices are USD list rates excluding tax; negotiated and volume pricing are not modelled. See the methodology for how failures to verify are handled, and the full price index to compare xAI against every other vendor tracked here.
