Frequently asked questions
GPT-4 (openai) costs $30.00 per 1M input tokens and $60.00 per 1M output tokens, as last published by openai.
GPT-4 has a context window of 8,192 tokens (the maximum combined input and output it can handle in a single request).
GPT-4 sits in the large size tier. Size tiers run from micro (small enough to run on a device) through small, medium and large to extra large (frontier flagships), and are assigned from the model's family, naming and limits rather than its price.
GPT-4 can generate up to 8,192 tokens in a single response. Reasoning (thinking) tokens count toward this limit.
GPT-4's training data runs through November 2023, so it may not know about later events. Coolhand records the cutoff at month precision, since providers often publish only the month.
GPT-4 accepts text as input and produces text as output, as recorded in the Coolhand catalog.
No — the weights of GPT-4 have not been released, so it is only available through hosted APIs.
Yes — openai deprecated GPT-4 on October 23, 2026. Model deprecated and scheduled for shutdown on October 23, 2026. Substitute: gpt-5.6-sol. Source: https://platform.openai.com/docs/deprecations
openai retired GPT-4 on October 23, 2026.
Since GPT-4 is deprecated, openai customers are moving to GPT-4, GPT-Image-2, and o1 Mini.
Call GET https://coolhandlabs.com/api/v2/inference_apis?q[source_api_eq]=openai&q[model_eq]=gpt-4 — free, no API key required, and scoped to just this model since source_api and model together are unique. See https://coolhandlabs.com/docs for the full REST API reference.
Coolhand also tracks GPT-3.5 Turbo 0125, GPT-3.5 Turbo 1106, GPT-3.5 Turbo Instruct, GPT-4 Turbo Vision, GPT-4, and GPT-Image-2 from openai. Some may already be deprecated, so check each model's status alongside its current pricing.
