Frequently Asked Questions
How much does GPT-5 Pro cost?
GPT-5 Pro costs $15.00 per 1M input tokens and $120.00 per 1M output tokens via OpenAI; all 2 providers listing it charge the same rate.
What does GPT-5 Pro cost for 10M input and 2M output tokens?
At OpenAI's rates, 10M input tokens and 2M output tokens cost about $390.00: $150.00 for input and $240.00 for output. Input is prompts and context, output is what the model writes back; a workload that generates more than it reads shifts the cost toward the output rate of $120.00 per 1M tokens.
Which providers offer GPT-5 Pro?
2 providers list GPT-5 Pro: OpenAI ($15.00 in / $120.00 out) and Azure ($15.00 in / $120.00 out). Rates are per 1M tokens in USD, cheapest input rate first.
What is GPT-5 Pro's context window?
GPT-5 Pro accepts up to 400K tokens of input per request and returns up to 272K tokens per response. The context window is the prompt plus any documents, conversation history and tool results sent with it; every token in it is billed at the input rate.
What is GPT-5 Pro's knowledge cutoff?
GPT-5 Pro's knowledge cutoff is September 2024: its training data runs up to that month and it has no built-in knowledge of later events. It supports web search, which can supply newer information at query time.
What inputs and outputs does GPT-5 Pro support?
GPT-5 Pro accepts text and images as input and produces text. Its listed capabilities are function calling, structured output, web search, file upload, MCP and image generation.
How does GPT-5 Pro compare with o1?
GPT-5 Pro and o1 both cost $15.00 per 1M input tokens ($120.00 vs $60.00 per 1M output tokens). The context window is 400K tokens against 200K.
What are cheaper alternatives to GPT-5 Pro?
Models from other creators with a lower input rate and at least GPT-5 Pro's 400K-token context window: Claude Fable 5 at $10.00 per 1M input tokens (1M context), Claude Opus 5 at $5.00 per 1M input tokens (1M context) and Claude Opus 4.7 at $5.00 per 1M input tokens (1M context). Rates are the cheapest listed provider for each; whether the quality holds for a given task is a separate question.
