Pricing
FreemiumGroqCloud uses pay-as-you-go pricing per million tokens with no seat license or minimum spend. Rates range from roughly $0.05 input / $0.08 output for Llama 3.1 8B Instant up to about $1.00 input / $3.00 output for Kimi K2, with the flagship Llama 3.3 70B Versatile priced at $0.59 input / $0.79 output and GPT-OSS 120B at $0.15 input / $0.60 output. Whisper v3 Turbo transcription is priced at $0.04 per hour of audio. A free tier is available to all registered users with no credit card required, offering access to every model at 30 requests per minute. The Batch API and prompt caching each cut rates by roughly 50%, and can be combined for an effective rate of about 25% of on-demand pricing on eligible workloads. Enterprise pricing, including GroqAssured governance features and dedicated GroqMetal infrastructure, is available by contacting Groq's sales team.
CustomSuki does not publish pricing on its official website; every path (Suki for Clinicians and Suki for Partners) leads to a "Contact Us" sales conversation rather than a self-serve checkout. Third-party trade coverage and reseller listings throughout 2025-2026 consistently report two tiers: Suki Compose (documentation-only, works with any EHR) at roughly $299 per provider per month, and the full Suki Assistant (deep EHR integration, voice commands, coding, and clinical Q&A) at roughly $399 per provider per month. Enterprise health-system contracts are negotiated separately with volume and specialty-based discounts, and some independent reviews report additional setup fees in the $500-$2,000 range plus annual contract commitments. Exact pricing requires a conversation with Suki's sales team.

Summary
The fastest inference cloud for open-source LLMs, powered by custom LPU chips
Ambient clinical AI that turns patient visits into notes, coding, and voice-driven workflows
Groq Pros & Cons
Pros
- Consistently ranks among the fastest LLM inference providers thanks to purpose-built LPU hardware
- OpenAI-compatible API makes migration from existing integrations fast
- Generous free tier with no credit card required and access to every hosted model
- Batch API and prompt caching can stack to roughly 25% of on-demand pricing
- Proven at scale with 3M+ developers and demanding real-time customers like McLaren F1
Cons
- Only hosts open-source models (Llama, Mixtral, Gemma, Qwen, DeepSeek distills), so there's no access to proprietary models like GPT or Claude through the platform
- The December 2025 NVIDIA licensing deal and departure of founder Jonathan Ross as CEO introduce some uncertainty about the platform's long-term technical direction
- No self-serve fine-tuning; customization requires contacting Groq's sales team or submitting an Enterprise request
- Free tier is limited by requests-per-minute (30 RPM) rather than a generous token allowance, which can bottleneck bursty workloads
- Full pricing isn't published for every capability, and Enterprise/GroqAssured governance features require a custom conversation
Suki AI Pros & Cons
Pros
- Genuine voice-command interface goes beyond passive transcription, letting clinicians drive the EHR by voice
- Combines documentation, coding, and clinical Q&A in one platform instead of separate point tools
- Deep, bi-directional integration with the four leading EHRs: Epic, Oracle Health, athenahealth, and MEDITECH
- Backed by independent KLAS validation of clinical and financial ROI
- Broad specialty and care-setting coverage, from ambulatory and inpatient to telehealth and home health
- Suki for Partners lets healthtech companies embed the same ambient AI via APIs and SDKs
Cons
- No public pricing or free tier; every path on the website leads to a sales demo and a typically annual enterprise contract
- Reported per-provider pricing (roughly $299-$399/month) runs meaningfully higher than several budget-focused competitors
- Enterprise-style deployment and contracting can be heavier than solo clinicians or small practices need
- Learning the voice-command workflow adds a slight learning curve compared with purely passive ambient scribes
- Doesn't cover adjacent front-office tasks like patient call answering, fax management, or payment collection
