OpenAI: GPT-4o
GPT-4o is a previous OpenAI omni chat snapshot, not the 2026 latest model. The still-listed GPT-4o card prints $2.50 input / $10.00 output per 1M tokens (cached input $1.25), aliases gpt-4o, gpt-4o-2024-08-06, gpt-4o-2024-11-20, and marks gpt-4o-2024-05-13 deprecated.
Compare GPT-5.6 Sol if you wanted the live frontier, OpenAI if you wanted the company page, and o1-mini if you wanted the leftover cheap reasoning twin.
Key Features
- Still listed, not the start-here model: Docs still describe GPT-4o as a versatile high-intelligence GPT. The models index now starts at GPT-5.6 Sol / Terra / Luna.
- Printed dollar row: $2.50 / $10.00 per 1M on the GPT-4o card on the public page. Confirm before you reuse leftover Turbo comparisons.
- One dated alias is deprecated:
gpt-4o-2024-05-13is marked deprecated on that card. - Website is the model card: Point at the developers model page, not a generic openai.com homepage claim that it is latest.
Use Cases
- People with a GPT-4o bookmark who need the catalog corrected.
- People who were about to call GPT-4o the 2026 latest OpenAI model.
Limitation: We did not re-run leftover speed or non-English crowns.
