GPT-6.1 Terra launches, with benchmarks and platform availability
What happened
On October 26, Artificial Analysis benchmarks showed GPT-6.1 Terra scoring 6 points higher on its intelligence index than GPT-5.6 Terra at maximum reasoning effort, with cost per task falling from $1.40 to $0.40. OpenAI released the model that day, citing stronger visual reasoning, computer use and natural writing, and cut standard API pricing 50% below GPT-5.6 Terra and GPT-6.1 Sol. Coverage on the 27th described six reasoning levels and tool calls that must go through the Responses API; the model rolled out in ChatGPT Work and Codex to Plus, Pro, Enterprise and Edu users. OpenRouter then listed it at $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens with a 1.05M context window, reporting scores on par with GPT-6 Astra and tasks more than 3x faster than Astra and 6.1 Sol. The release also claims cross-app operation and API plus subscription usage at 2x that of 6.1 Sol.
