Providers

Different companies host the same model. OpenRouter routes your request to one of them based on the routing mode you pick — Balanced (price + speed), Nitro (fastest), Floor (cheapest), or Exacto (highest tool-calling accuracy).

Pricing

The average price customers actually pay for this model, next to the prices providers post. Caching and discounts mean the price actually paid is often well below the listed one.

Performance

Throughput is how fast the model writes (tokens per second — higher is better). Latency is total round-trip time (lower is better). TTFT is time-to-first-token — how long before you see anything appear (lower is better).

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

Benchmarks

Scores on standardized evaluations and this model’s own outputs on shared benchmark prompts. Higher percentages are better — and each rank shows where this model lands among the models evaluated on that source.

More models from OpenAI

GPT-6.1 Sol Pro

GPT-6.1 Sol Pro is the same underlying model as GPT-6.1 Sol, served with reasoning.mode set to pro for higher-quality responses on complex tasks.

Cost note: pro mode spends far more reasoning tokens per request, so a typical request costs several times more than the same request on GPT-6.1 Sol and takes much longer to complete. It is intended for hard, high-stakes problems where the extra accuracy justifies the cost. For everyday coding, agentic, and chat workloads, use GPT-6.1 Sol instead.

GPT-6.1 Sol

GPT-6.1 Sol is an upgrade to GPT-6 Sol from OpenAI, positioned below the flagship GPT-6 Astra in the GPT-6 series. It is suited for agentic coding, computer use, document-heavy professional work, and multi-step business workflow automation, and approaches Astra-level results on these tasks at a much lower cost. Compared with GPT-6 Sol, it makes fewer factual errors and is more reliable at respecting explicit restrictions and user intent during agentic tasks.

GPT-6 Luna

GPT-6 Luna is the fast, cost-efficient model in OpenAI's GPT-6 series, positioned below GPT-6 Sol. It is suited for high-volume and latency-sensitive workloads such as chat, classification, and lightweight agentic tasks, and at higher reasoning effort it can take on complex software engineering and computer-use tasks that previously called for a Sol-tier model. It shares the GPT-6 family's gains in factual reliability and its clearer, more concise communication style.
