What is GPT-6.1 Sol?
OpenAI has introduced GPT-6.1 Sol, a model aimed at coding, computer use and professional work. According to the company's announcement, it offers a capability level close to Astra, its flagship model.
The pricing angle
The most striking part of the announcement is pricing. OpenAI says standard API input and output token pricing for GPT-6.1 Sol is one-fifth of Astra's, meaning the same workload should cost noticeably less.
Why it matters
The phrase "computer use" signals that the model is not limited to generating text; it also targets agent scenarios that act through screens and interfaces. Coding and professional workflows fall under the same scope.
What is still unknown
The announcement does not include details such as context window, speed benchmarks, availability date or which platforms the model will run on. Further OpenAI posts are expected on those points.
