Kimi K3 input price cut to $0.4 per 1M tokens
Kimi K3 input pricing on OpenRouter has dropped from $0.62 to $0.4 per 1M tokens. Output pricing is unchanged at $15 per 1M tokens. The change affects input costs only, so the gap between read and write costs widens.

What it means for a SaaS brand
Cheaper input makes Kimi K3 more viable for large-context work such as feeding full documentation sets, competitor pages or site crawls into visibility testing. Output is still the expensive half, so keep generated responses short and run the volume on the input side.
