Frequently asked questions
GPT-4o (OpenAI) costs $2.50 per 1M input tokens and $10.00 per 1M output tokens, as last published by OpenAI.
GPT-4o has a context window of 128,000 tokens (the maximum combined input and output it can handle in a single request).
GPT-4o 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-4o can generate up to 16,384 tokens in a single response. Reasoning (thinking) tokens count toward this limit.
GPT-4o's training data runs through September 2023, so it may not know about later events. Coolhand records the cutoff at month precision, since providers often publish only the month.
GPT-4o accepts image, pdf, and text as input and produces text as output, as recorded in the Coolhand catalog.
No — the weights of GPT-4o have not been released, so it is only available through hosted APIs.
Yes — deprecated GPT-4o on July 27, 2026. Deprecated. API shutdown Oct 23, 2026. Successor: gpt-5.6-sol
retired GPT-4o on July 27, 2026.
