By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

OpenAI has significantly reduced the pricing for its GPT-6.1 Terra model, cutting costs to $1 in and $5 out per 1 million tokens, with cached input at $0.05. This new pricing is half that of the GPT-6.1 Sol model. The company also claims GPT-6.1 Terra is three times faster than GPT-6.1 Sol and Astra, achieving a 50.3% score on the Terminal-Bench 4.0 benchmark, a substantial improvement over the previous Terra model's 21.5%.
