What is an LLM Token?

Large Language Models (LLMs) do not read text letter-by-letter. Instead, they process sequences of characters called tokens. A token is roughly equivalent to 4 characters or 0.75 words in English. Estimating your token weights helps optimize prompts, avoid API limit breaches, and calculate billing expenses beforehand.

Understanding Tokenizer Models

  • GPT-4 / GPT-3.5 (cl100k_base): The default tokenizer mapping OpenAI input sequences.
  • Claude (Anthropic): Optimized for conversational payloads, showing slightly different character-to-token weights.
  • LLaMA (Meta): Open-weights tokenizer configured for multi-language syntax variables.

Unicode & JSON Token weight estimation

JSON keys (like braces, quotation marks, and spacing indents) consume tokens just like regular words. Our counter recursively counts keys, spaces, and strings client-side, running local statistical BPE heuristics to deliver close approximations for all models instantly.
