Back of the envelope calculation: Ox Alpha has been out for a week with 130K users and 7T tokens burned.
Method 1: Assuming Ox Alpha is the GLM 5.3 class, it has roughly the same active param count as DeepSeek V4 Pro (~40B vs 49B), derive the cost by the floor price DS has ever published.
Method 2: Assuming the users are concentrated within an 8-hour working window each day, derive number of H800 nodes needed (~700 nodes at $2/GPU-hour).
In both methods, I assume 90/10 IO split and 60% cache hit. Both methods come to $2M.
I think the ROI is awesome: (1) publicity and (2) data harvesting.
