Strengths & Best Use Cases

GPT-5 Mini

1. High reasoning performance

  • Retains strong reasoning capabilities despite being a smaller, faster model.
  • Suitable for tasks requiring accurate logic and structured thinking.

2. Fast and cost-efficient

  • Optimized for speed, making it ideal for real-time or high-volume workloads.
  • Far cheaper than GPT-5 while maintaining solid capability.

3. Great for well-defined tasks

  • Excels when prompts are precise and objectives are clearly specified.
  • More predictable and stable for deterministic workflows.

4. Multimodal input

  • Accepts text + image as input.
  • Outputs text only.

5. Tool support

  • Works with Web Search, File Search, Code Interpreter, MCP.
  • (Does not support Image Generation as a tool and does not support Computer Use.)

Gemini 3 Pro

1. State-of-the-art reasoning

  • Top performance across academic reasoning, scientific knowledge, math, and complex problem-solving.
  • Excels at long-horizon, multi-step workflows and deep logical interpretation.

2. World-leading multimodal capabilities

  • Natively understands text, images, videos, audio, and code.
  • Ranked highest on benchmarks like MMMU-Pro, Video-MMMU, ScreenSpot-Pro.

3. Exceptional coding + agentic workflows

  • Strong in competitive coding and real-world agentic tasks (SWE-Bench Verified, Terminal-Bench, LiveCodeBench).
  • Improved tool calling, planning, and execution for autonomous or semi-autonomous agents.

4. Powerful for long-context tasks

  • Effective at 128K-1M context windows with high retrieval accuracy.
  • Ideal for document-heavy workflows, research, analysis, multi-file coding, and multi-document reasoning.

5. Strong information synthesis and interpretation

  • Outperforms peers in chart reasoning, OCR, structured extraction, and screen understanding.
  • Excellent at combining multimodal inputs into coherent, concise answers.

6. High reliability for enterprise tasks

  • Benchmarks show superior factuality, grounding, and parametric knowledge.
  • Strong multilingual accuracy and global commonsense performance.

7. Optimized for production agents

  • Designed for complex multi-step planning, simultaneous task execution, and improved consistency.
  • Works across coding, research, creative workflows, UI generation, and data-heavy applications.
