Hi @chaymr
The Azure OpenAI Assistant API does not generate additional tokens other than the system and user prompt messages. The cost of using the Assistant API is based on the input and output tokens, and it varies depending on the GPT model used with each Assistant.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks
Saurabh
