1. Best Intelligence at Scale

• OpenAI positions GPT-5.4 as its frontier model for agentic, coding, and professional workflows.
• Built for complex professional work where stronger reasoning and higher answer quality matter.

2. Configurable Reasoning + Multimodal Input

• Supports configurable reasoning effort from none to xhigh, letting teams balance speed and depth.
• Accepts both text and image inputs while producing text output.

3. Massive Context for Long-Running Work

• 1.05M token context window supports very large codebases, documents, and multi-step workflows.
• Allows up to 128 k output tokens for long-form answers and larger generations.

4. Updated Knowledge & Broad Tool Support

• Knowledge cut-off of Aug 31 2025 keeps it current for newer frameworks and business context.
• Supports tools like web search, file search, code interpreter, hosted shell, computer use, and MCP in the Responses API.

1. Extremely fast performance

• Fastest model in the GPT-5 family.
• Great for real-time workflows, rapid responses, and high-throughput systems.

2. Most cost-efficient GPT-5 model

• Lowest input and output token costs.
• Suitable for large-scale or budget-sensitive applications.

3. Ideal for lightweight, well-scoped tasks

• Excels at summarization, classification, text extraction, and simple logic tasks.
• Best used when tasks are narrow and well-defined.

4. Multimodal input

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

5. Broad tool support

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