OpenAI: GPT-6 Astra

The OpenAI GPT-6 Astra is a large language model that supports multiple input modalities, including text, images, and files. It has a high context length of 1,050,000 tokens, allowing it to process complex inputs, and also supports tools, reasoning, and unstructured output. This model is suitable for organizations or individuals with substantial budgets who require advanced language processing capabilities. At $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, its pricing point may be a barrier for those on tighter budgets. However, the GPT-6 Astra's blended benchmark score of 98.8 across one independent benchmark suggests it is a strong contender in the field, potentially justifying its cost for those who can afford it.
