Best for

  • Pipelines tuned and evaluated against GPT-5.4.
  • Balanced coding and content workloads.
  • Teams migrating gradually to GPT-5.6 Terra.

Good to know

  • Reasoning efforts none through xhigh; the max level is exclusive to the GPT-5.6 line.
  • gpt-5.6-terra is now the cheaper balanced tier ($2/$12 vs $2.50/$15) — new projects should usually start there.
  • Requests above 272K input tokens bill at OpenAI long-context rates: 2× input and 1.5× output on the whole request.
