Assuming a standard single-spaced document with ~500 words per page, a 50 pages document contains approximately 25,000 words, which translates to roughly 32,000 tokens using GPT-5.4 Workhorse's tokenizer. Dense PDF tables, legal boilerplate, and OCR scans may increase this by 20–30%.
GPT-5.4 Workhorse has a context window of 256,000 tokens. A 50 pages document consumes only 12.50% 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 $0.0875. Using 24-hour async batch API queues drops this cost to $0.0438.
If your workflow repeatedly queries or chats with this same 50 pages document, prompt caching reduces subsequent turn input costs by up to 90% (to $0.008 per turn instead of $0.08).
