BigQuery Mate is a Google Chrome extension through which you can estimate query cost within the query validator. However, this extension works only on the old user interface of BigQuery. Unlike the Google Cloud pricing calculator, this extension works even when you are querying less than 1 terabyte of data.
This page describes best practices for controlling costs in BigQuery. BigQuery has two pricing models for running queries: On-demand pricing: You pay for the number of bytes processed by each query. Flat-rate pricing: You pay for dedicated query processing capacity, measured in slots.
If you have multiple BigQuery projects and users, you can manage costs by requesting a custom quota that specifies a limit on the amount of query data processed per day. Creating a custom quota on query data allows you to control costs at the project-level or at the user-level.
If you create a large, multi-stage query, each time you run it, BigQuery reads all the data that is required by the query. You are billed for all the data that is read each time the query is run.
