Advancing the price-performance frontier with GPT‑5.6
Today, we’re passing those gains on to customers with lower prices for GPT‑5.6 Luna(opens in a new window) and Terra(opens in a new window) and faster performance with GPT‑5.6 Sol in the API. Together, these updates help customers get more from every dollar they invest in AI and move faster when time matters.Starting today, GPT‑5.6 Luna, our fastest and most affordable model, will cost 80% less, while GPT‑5.6 Terra, our balanced model for everyday work, will cost 20% less. These lower prices for Luna and Terra are also reflected in how usage is counted against paid subscriptions when using Codex and ChatGPT Work.
