ESTIMATE (base-model reference; self-hosted open weights, no public tariff): the exact base google/gemma-4-12B-it is in the frozen pricing module's UNLISTED_BASE_MODELS set, so no exact base-model rate and no floor exist. The reference is the one the rows PUBLISHED on this same base use - cygnet, jev-omni and winnow-12b - OpenRouter google/gemma-3-12b-it, the nearest publicly hosted 12B Gemma sibling, at its FULL catalog pair USD 0.05 per 1M input and USD 0.15 per 1M output. PREREG-R54-AMENDMENT-1 uses the full pair rather than run 53's output=0, so a row that emits tokens pays for them; where a row generates nothing the output term is zero anyway. x this row's own measured input/output tokens, the deck31b method. Estimated, not charged

Measured p50 latency: 0.164 s (on-GPU, no network, loopback; not directly comparable with API latency, which we time end to end from our measuring host, network included)

Ranking and cap use: 0.48 s (est. incl. network (2x + 150 ms))

Self-hosted model: measured p50 0.164 s on-GPU, no network (timed on our GPU over loopback). Not directly comparable with API latency, which we time end to end from our measuring host, network included. The ranking and latency cap use the same estimate for every self-hosted row: 2 × measured + 150 ms = 0.48 s. Model authors can ask us to time a hosted endpoint instead (on request).

x2 + 0.15 s (assumption, not measured)

measured 2026-10-06 on the live v1.6.0/v1.6.1 pool. Serving code github.com/hopit-ai/hopper tag 12b-1.1.1, installed with the author's own one-line pip install; adapter HopitAI/hopper@4b605f25eb903c2cf4d121040ffb097240b3bc37 (branch hopper-12b), LoRA r32 alpha 64, loaded UNMERGED because the author states a bf16 merge changes answers; base google/gemma-4-12B-it@707f0a3b, frozen; readout map maps/hopper-12b-trained-readout.json as shipped in their package. 1.1.1 is their own fix for corrupted option scores at prompt lengths one above a multiple of 32. Their flags left at their defaults: --shortlist tournament (their measured default) for menus over 26 options, --cuda-graphs OFF. The author asked on 6 Oct 2026 that the TRAINED version replace the untrained Hopper 12B request in GitHub #164; this is that row. NOT the published `hopper` row (HopitAI, rank 25), a different system. One RTX 6000 Ada 48 GB (Lium, Toronto); the author ran theirs on an L40S. Latency axis uses the standard self-hosted x2 + 0.15 s adjustment. add-requests run 54, GitHub #164
