1. Highest reasoning quality in the GPT-5 family

• Uses significantly more compute to "think harder" before responding.
• Designed for the toughest reasoning tasks where answer quality matters more than speed.
• Produces more precise, reliable, and detailed outputs than standard GPT-5.

2. Advanced multi-turn reasoning via Responses API

• Available only in the Responses API to support:
  • Multi-turn internal model interactions before returning a reply.
  • Advanced control patterns (e.g., background mode for long-running jobs).
• Ideal for complex workflows, deep planning, and multi-step analysis.

3. Configured for maximum effort by default

• Always runs with reasoning.effort: 'high' (no lower-effort mode).
• Prioritizes depth and correctness over latency and cost.

4. Multimodal input

• Accepts text + image as input.
• Outputs text, with strong instruction-following and analysis capabilities.

5. Tooling and ecosystem integration

• Supports Web Search, File Search, and Image Generation (as tools).
• Supports MCP and other Responses API tooling patterns.
• Does not support Code Interpreter and does not support Computer Use, keeping focus on pure reasoning + tools.
