OpenAI: o3

OpenAI's o3 model supports image, text, and file inputs; it can process up to 200,000 tokens of context and offers reasoning capabilities along with support for tools. While structured output is not provided, the model excels in handling complex tasks across multiple modalities. This model should be considered by those who require extensive contextual understanding and need access to diverse input types; however, its high price point at $2.0 per million input tokens and $8.0 per million output tokens might make it less suitable for smaller projects or frequent use cases. Its blended benchmark score of 77.7 across three independent benchmarks indicates strong performance but may not be the best choice if cost is a primary concern.
