LLM Token Counter
Counts tokens and estimates API costs for GPT, Claude, Gemini, and other LLMs.

What LLM Token Counter does
The LLM Token Counter on DevBolt provides a straightforward way to calculate token counts and estimate API costs for major large language models including GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, and Llama. Users paste their text into the input field, and the tool processes the content to deliver accurate token estimates tailored to specific model families. This helps developers gauge prompt and output sizes before deployment, ensuring efficient model usage and cost management. The tool also offers optimization tips to help users stay within token limits. While the interface is minimal and focused on functionality, it lacks the extensive model variety or advanced prompting features found in some competitors, making it a practical choice for quick, reliable estimates. Developers working with APIs or building prompt-intensive applications will find it useful for regular token counting tasks.

Best for
Developers and API users who need quick, accurate token counts and cost estimates for GPT, Claude, Gemini, or Llama models when building or optimizing prompts.
Limitations
- Interface is minimal with limited advanced features
- Results are estimates and may vary from actual model behavior
- No unit switching or detailed prompt engineering tools beyond basic counting
LLM Token Counter FAQ
- How accurate are the token counts compared to the actual model?
- The counts are estimates based on the model's tokenization rules and may differ slightly from the actual model's tokenization, but they provide a reliable approximation for planning and cost management.
- Can I use this tool for free, or are there usage limits?
- The tool is available on DevBolt without mention of a paid tier, suggesting it is free to use, though specific daily or session limits are not detailed in the stored notes.
- Does the tool support models beyond GPT-4, Claude, and Gemini?
- Yes, the tool also supports Llama and other models, allowing users to select from a range of major large language families for token counting.
- What should I do if my token count exceeds the model's limit?
- The tool provides optimization tips to help reduce token usage, such as trimming unnecessary content or rephrasing prompts to fit within the model's maximum token limit.
