GPT‑6.1 Terra

Proprietary OpenAI model released on October 26, 2026 for interpreting images, using applications and writing text. It accepts text and images and returns text; generating images through a tool is not a native output modality. It is available through the API as gpt-6.1-terra and in ChatGPT Work and Codex depending on the plan. It is not released as a downloadable checkpoint.

BEST SUITED FOR

Reading invoices, comparing photographs, interpreting drawings and automating bounded tasks. The default effort is medium; none disables configurable reasoning. The documentation lists a 1,050,000-token context and up to 128,000 output tokens. Compare accuracy, latency and cost per task using the same documents and tools.

WORTH MONITORING

Tool calling requires the Responses API. Native audio and video modalities and fine-tuning are not supported. Computer-executor permissions should be limited to the task; interpreting a screen does not guarantee successful action completion. The stated knowledge cutoff is June 1, 2026, rather than the release date.

Standard prices per million tokens: USD 1 input, USD 0.05 cached input and USD 5 output. Cache writes cost USD 1.25 for 30 minutes and USD 2.50 for 12 hours. Above 272,000 input tokens, the entire request is charged at 2× input and cache rates and 1.5× output rates. Batch and Flex cost 50% less; Fast costs twice as much. Regional processing adds 10%, and tools may incur additional charges.

i Prices change and may depend on level, region or context length. Check the source before making a decision.

05 / EVALUATIONS

How to read the results

“

OpenAI reports 50.3% on Terminal-Bench 4.0 at max effort. This is a provider evaluation, not an Inferama reproduction or a guarantee for every repository. Model comparisons require the same harness, tools and effort. The system card documents safeguards and limitations; error rates from internal tests are not general accuracy measures.

Inferama only highlights a “best result” when the metric, test set, configuration, and date allow for an equivalent comparison. The supplier's figures are presented as claims from its own source.
