Frequently Asked Questions
How much does GPT-5.3-Codex cost?
GPT-5.3-Codex costs $1.75 per 1M input tokens and $14.00 per 1M output tokens via OpenAI; all 2 providers listing it charge the same rate.
What does GPT-5.3-Codex cost for 10M input and 2M output tokens?
At OpenAI's rates, 10M input tokens and 2M output tokens cost about $45.50: $17.50 for input and $28.00 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 $14.00 per 1M tokens.
Which providers offer GPT-5.3-Codex?
2 providers list GPT-5.3-Codex: OpenAI ($1.75 in / $14.00 out) and Azure ($1.75 in / $14.00 out). Rates are per 1M tokens in USD, cheapest input rate first.
What is GPT-5.3-Codex's context window?
GPT-5.3-Codex accepts up to 400K tokens of input per request and returns up to 128K 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-5.3-Codex's knowledge cutoff?
GPT-5.3-Codex's knowledge cutoff is August 2025: 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-5.3-Codex support?
GPT-5.3-Codex accepts text and images as input and produces text. Its listed capabilities are function calling, structured output and web search.
How does GPT-5.3-Codex compare with GPT-5.2?
GPT-5.3-Codex and GPT-5.2 both cost $1.75 per 1M input tokens ($14.00 vs $14.00 per 1M output tokens). Both have a 400K-token context window.
What are cheaper alternatives to GPT-5.3-Codex?
Models from other creators with a lower input rate and at least GPT-5.3-Codex's 400K-token context window: Gemini 3.6 Flash at $1.50 per 1M input tokens (1M context), Gemini 3.7 Flash at $1.50 per 1M input tokens (1M context) and Gemini 3.5 Flash at $1.50 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.
