Overview
- O3-Pro launches on ChatGPT Pro and Team tiers and via the OpenAI API with rollout to Enterprise and Edu users scheduled next week.
- OpenAI cut O3 token costs by 80%, bringing input fees to $2 and output fees to $8 per million tokens with additional discounts for cached prompts.
- The O3-Pro model is priced at $20 per million input tokens and $80 per million output tokens, making it nearly 87% cheaper than its O1-Pro predecessor.
- Expert and benchmark tests show reviewers consistently prefer O3-Pro over the base O3 for clarity, comprehensiveness, instruction-following and accuracy across science, education, programming and business domains.
- O3-Pro leverages web search, file analysis, Python execution, visual reasoning and memory to boost accuracy but produces slower responses and currently lacks image generation, Canvas support and temporary chats.
