Inputs: model, sort, limit, detail, region, no_training
estimate_costEstimated cost of a workload on one model at each provider: cost per request, and per month if requests_per_day is given, taking the provider's tiered pricing and prompt-cache price into account. Offers sorted by estimated cost, cheapest fi
