Inception on ModelCap: common questions
What is the best model available on Inception?
Mercury 2.5 from Inception Labs is the highest-ranked language model Inception serves, at ModelCap Index position #90 and $0.15 per 1M output tokens on Inception. The table lists every model in Index order.
What is the cheapest model on Inception?
Mercury 2.5 at $0.15 per 1M output tokens ($0.04 per 1M input), the lowest positive language-token price Inception lists. Free-tier endpoints, where present, show as $0 and are excluded from that comparison.
Which Inception model has the largest context window?
Mercury 2.5, served with a 260K-token context window on Inception. Providers sometimes serve less than the model's published maximum, so the figure here is the provider's own.
How reliable is Inception?
Mean measured uptime across Inception endpoints is 99.93% over the last 30 minutes, as reported by OpenRouter at the time of the snapshot. Per-model uptime is in the table; it is a live operational signal, not a service-level guarantee.
Where do the Inception prices come from?
From the OpenRouter catalogue entry for each Inception endpoint, in USD per 1M tokens, re-observed on every ModelCap refresh. Where Inception exposes several deployments of one model at different prices, the table shows the lowest and notes the count; the model page lists each deployment.
How current is this page?
This page uses the published ModelCap snapshot dated 1 October 2026. Publication and page updates happen separately. Offers retained from a failed refresh are marked stale in the data and are not counted here.
