above 272K input tokens the whole request bills at 2x input and cache and 1.5x output: $4.00/$0.40/$5.00/$15.00. Batch and Flex halve every column

922,000 max input tokens

cached input at 10% of base; implicit or explicit-only mode, and an entry lives at least 30 minutes after its last write or reuse

Watch out

The name says Sol, the price says Terra: $2.00/$10.00 against GPT-5.6 Sol's $4.00/$20.00, and $2 less output than GPT-5.6 Terra. A config that picks a model by family name did not move with it. Above 272K input every token in the request bills at the higher tier

What we would use it for

OpenAI's recommended balance of capability and cost, and the first GPT-6 row whose reasoning can be switched off (effort none)

What this has cost, week by week

Output price at each refresh since 2026-09-24. A vendor change is the provider changing its price. Our correction means this board changed what it prints and the provider's charge did not move — the two are never merged, because publishing the second as the first would be a price rise that never happened.

09-24 $10.00

Nothing has moved since we started tracking it.
