Model Detail
OpenAI: o1
—OpenAI: o1 is a multimodal model released by OpenAI. And supports text+image+file->text inputs.
OpenAI: o1 is priced at $15/M input tokens and $60/M output tokens. This is frontier pricing, so cost-fit usually depends on whether the per-call quality justifies running a smaller commodity model two or three times to compare.
The published knowledge cutoff is 2023-10-31, so newer events will not be reflected in zero-shot answers without retrieval.
OpenAI: o1 is best fit for mixed text-and-image reasoning tasks such as document understanding. It is a less obvious choice for cost-sensitive batch processing where a commodity-tier model could be retried cheaply. Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
