At 15 requests/user/day (totaling 22,500,000 queries/mo), running Translation on GPT-5.6 Sol Pro (OpenRouter) costs $1,432,125.00 / month ($28.643 / user / mo).
Translation for a 50,000 active users (mid-market enterprise) audience means 750,000 requests per day on average, each carrying 5,000 input and 5,500 output tokens at a 15% cacheable share — so the effective per-request cost on GPT-5.6 Sol Pro (OpenRouter) is $0.0637, of which $30,375.00/mo comes back from prompt caching. Per active user that's $28.643/mo — the number to hold against your pricing tier and gross margin. Charging at least $143.212/user/mo keeps gross margin at or above 80%.
Quick answer
For 50,000 Active Users, Translation on GPT-5.6 Sol Pro (OpenRouter) is modeled at 22,500,000 requests per month, costing $1,432,125.00 per month or $28.643 per active user.
Method & trust
This projection combines the selected active-user tier, requests per user per day, input/output tokens per request, and the modeled cache share. It is an operating estimate, not a provider invoice; production traffic and retries should be measured against it.
