Perplexity: Sonar Pro

Perplexity: Sonar Pro is a large language model API from Perplexity, part of its Sonar Pro model family. With $3.00 per million input tokens and $15.00 per million output tokens, it is a premium-tier model where output volume is the main cost to watch. Output tokens cost about 5× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. A large 200K-token context window (≈300 pages of text) lets it take in whole books, large codebases, or lengthy transcripts in a single call. Beyond plain text it also accepts Image input, so it can be applied to multimodal tasks rather than text alone. On Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index it scores 9 (F grade), a useful proxy for its general reasoning strength relative to the other models tracked here.
