FAQ

Where does Sol sit in the GPT-6 series?
It is the cost-efficient high-end tier, above the fast GPT-6 Luna and below the flagship GPT-6 Astra. Choose Sol for demanding work that does not need the absolute maximum depth of the flagship.
What inputs does it accept?
Text, images and files, with text output. It serves a ~1.05M-token context window with up to 128K output tokens.
What capabilities does it support?
Configurable reasoning effort (reasoning_effort), function calling / tools, structured (JSON) outputs via response_format, and seeded sampling — all through the OpenAI-compatible API.
How is it priced?
Pricing is tiered by prompt size: a standard rate up to 272K input tokens, stepping up for prompts beyond that. It is materially cheaper than the flagship Astra tier. See the pricing on this page for the current rate.
