Strengths

  • API price is half that of GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol ($1 / $5 per 1M tokens)
  • 1.05M-token context window with up to 128K output tokens
  • OpenAI reports a large terminal-coding gain over GPT-5.6 Terra at max effort (see the official model page)

Considerations

  • OpenAI still recommends GPT-6.1 Sol or GPT-6 Astra for the most complex coding tasks
  • Speed and error-rate claims come from OpenAI's own evaluations; in ChatGPT it is limited to Work and Codex

Price

API $1 input / $5 output per 1M tokens ($0.05 cached input)
