Assuming a standard single-spaced document with ~500 words per page, a 1 page document contains approximately 500 words, which translates to roughly 667 tokens using Llama 3.1 405B Instruct's tokenizer. Dense PDF tables, legal boilerplate, and OCR scans may increase this by 20–30%.
Llama 3.1 405B Instruct has a context window of 128,000 tokens. A 1 page document consumes only 0.52% of its total window, easily fitting in a single prompt without requiring chunking or vector search.
Ingesting the document and outputting a concise 500-token executive summary costs $0.002917. Using 24-hour async batch API queues drops this cost to $0.001459.
If your workflow repeatedly queries or chats with this same 1 page document, prompt caching reduces subsequent turn input costs by up to 90% (to $0.000292 per turn instead of $0.001167).
