o3 Thinking Tokens Can Multiply Your Bill Quickly

OpenAI's o3 uses extended chain-of-thought reasoning internally, consuming 'thinking tokens' that are billed separately. A single complex reasoning query can consume 10,000-50,000 thinking tokens. Always test o3 usage on small samples before scaling to avoid surprise bills.

Use Claude's Extended Thinking for Multi-Step Reasoning

Claude Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 support extended thinking mode, where the model explicitly reasons through problems step-by-step before answering. Enable it with `thinking: {type: 'enabled', budget_tokens: 10000}`. This dramatically improves accuracy on math, logic puzzles, and multi-constraint problems.
