OpenAI launches GPT-6.1 Terra: fast, low-cost computer use at $1/$5 per million tokens, half the price of GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol
On Oct 26 OpenAI released GPT-6.1 Terra, an efficient model for visual reasoning, precise computer use and natural writing. It is rolling out today to Plus, Pro, Enterprise and Edu users in ChatGPT Work and Codex, and in the API as gpt-6.1-terra. Standard API pricing is $1 input, $0.05 cached input and $5 output per million tokens, which OpenAI says is 50% lower than GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol, with a 1,050,000-token context window. By OpenAI's figures it scores 15 points higher than GPT-5.6 Terra on Agents' Last Exam at medium effort for about a third of the cost, and solves 50.3% of Terminal-Bench 4.0 at max effort.
