GPT-5.1 pricing
Providers
GPT-5.1 starts at $1.25 per million input tokens and $10.00 per million output tokens via OpenAI.
| Provider | Input $/M | Output $/M | Context in / out | TTFT p50 / p95 s | Output avg / p5 c/s | Success 7d | Modalities in / out |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $1.25 | $10.00 | 400.0K/128.0K | 1.26/2.05 | 342/272 | 100.00%(5) | / |
Cached input is the discounted price for prompt tokens served from a provider cache. TTFT is time to first token. Output is characters per second; p5 is the sustained floor exceeded by 95% of observed requests. Success is calculated from completed versus failed requests over the trailing seven days.
