Context window
1,050,000 tokens 1.05M-token context (922k max input) with 128k max output. Knowledge cutoff 2026-05-18. Prompts over 272k input tokens cost 2x input and cache rates and 1.5x output for the whole request. Reasoning effort runs none / low / medium (default) / high / xhigh / max.

Strengths

  • Lowest price in the GPT-6 generation ($0.10 input / $0.50 output per MTok; $0.01 cached input)
  • 1.05M-token context with 128k max output and a 2026-05-18 knowledge cutoff
  • Full hosted tool set in the Responses API — web search, file search, image generation, code interpreter, hosted shell, apply patch, skills, computer use, MCP, and tool search
  • Supports the `none` reasoning effort for the cheapest, fastest replies; Batch and Flex at 50% off
  • The model behind OpenAI's Decisions API (generally available 2026-10-22)

Weaknesses

  • Long prompts cost more — over 272k input tokens the whole request is billed at 2x input and 1.5x output
  • Chat Completions supports function calling only at `reasoning_effort: none`; built-in tools need the Responses API
  • Text and image input only — no audio or video
  • Not available for Realtime, Assistants, fine-tuning, embeddings, image generation, speech, transcription, or moderation
  • Closed weights — API and product only
