Model comparisons
GPT 6.1 Terra bills 50% less than GPT 6.1 Sol per million output tokens. Tier prices, request fields and limits side by side.
GPT 6.1 Sol reviews difficult code changes and professional analyses with text and image evidence in one conversation. Sol’s 128,000-token reply budget includes reasoning as well as the patch or analysis you see; the default cap is 4,096.
View model details →View sample outputs →GPT 6.1 Terra reads screenshots and documents, then turns the supplied evidence into concise drafts or extracted fields. Terra defaults to a 4,096-token reply cap and permits 128,000; reserve part of that allowance for reasoning whenever effort is above none.

About this comparison
Every row here is read from the JSON Schema the endpoint validates against, so it matches what the API will really accept rather than a feature list written by hand.

Can I swap the model ID without changing the request body?
The task lifecycle is shared; the body is not. Each endpoint publishes its own JSON Schema and the API validates against that, so this is the list to reconcile before a switch.
Compare
The model identifiers are openai/gpt-6.1-sol/chat and openai/gpt-6.1-terra/chat, and both go in the same field of the same request.
Both return the response on the chat request. With streaming enabled, read the stream until it finishes; there is no media task to poll.
Both use the same submit-and-track flow, but their required inputs may differ. Check each model page before switching.
One key, one balance, one set of spend caps. Both bill to the same account in US dollars, and the per-key daily, monthly and lifetime limits apply to whichever one you call.
Questions developers ask
GPT 6.1 Terra costs 50% less per million output tokens. Compare the input and cache rates below for longer conversations. Prices may change; check the estimate shown for your actual settings before submitting.
GPT 6.1 Sol allows 10 minutes per task and GPT 6.1 Terra allows 10. Those are ceilings rather than typical times — most requests finish far sooner — but they are what your own client timeout has to survive.
Prices and capabilities shown here come from the current public model catalogue. Check each model page for its latest inputs and examples.
