GPT 5 Mini
StandardCompact GPT-5 variant balancing speed and intelligence.
Same instruction-following and safety as GPT-5, with reduced latency and cost. Ideal for everyday tasks that don't need full reasoning power.
▼
GPT 5 Mini by OpenAI has a Capability Index of 78.0, making it comparable to the field average. It ranks #33 out of 92 models on the idapt capability leaderboard. It resolves 65% of SWE-bench Verified coding tasks. GPT 5 Mini is somewhat expensive at $0.25/M tokens input and $2.00/M tokens output. Cached input reads are priced at $0.02/M tokens, making repeated context cheaper. The model supports vision/image input, extended reasoning, a 400K context window.
