» Cedana / Capacity planning Tokens to GPUs Calculator Tokens have become the unit that many practitioners use to report AI growth. The trouble is that the numbers are hard to picture. Is a trillion tokens a month a lot? It depends. The same volume needs a different amount of hardware depending on the GPU, the model, and the workload (agentic coding, chat). So we built a calculator. Enter a token volume and pick a model. It tells you how many GPUs that works out to, with a range that shows how firm the estimate is. Every default links to its source, and you can swap in your own measurements. 1
