GPT-5.6

GPT-5.6 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer 5.6) is a large language model (LLM) developed by OpenAI and released on July 9, 2026. It is a family of models that comes in three distinct variants, ranked from least to most capable: Luna, Terra, and Sol. The models were designed to expand user capabilities across enterprise work, coding, scientific research, and cybersecurity. Due to government restrictions levied by the Donald Trump administration, GPT-5.6 was first released as a limited preview only on June 26, 2026 for "small group of trusted partners", despite the planned public rollout in the same month. On August 10, 2026, GPT-5.6-Cyber was launched with Daybreak Blue and Red, and it solved and completed 95% of cybersecurity problems. On August 11, 2026, Astra now has "universal monitoring for risky actions and misalignment," with monitors watching over its "chain of thought" in order to stop the model if it starts to move into high risk activity.

• GPT-6 Astra - Wikipedia

  GPT-6 Astra (aka Generative Pre-trained Transformer 6, or for short GPT-6) is a large language model (LLM) developed by OpenAI and was released on September 3, 2026, which on that day, president Greg Brockman called a "generational leap" and said could eventually be seen as the arrival of artificial general intelligence, or AGI. OpenAI reported on September 1, 2026, that access to its most advanced cybersecurity capabilities will be more limited. Advanced cybersecurity work will initially be available to a group of testers, with access through Daybreak Blue following to expand defensive use. ## References [edit]

  GPT‑6 Astra is our best model for adhering to existing templates and producing slides that are well laid out and succinctly convey key points with a structured narrative. It creates clear, well-structured documents, presentations, spreadsheets, and analyses that follow your templates and match your writing and visual style. Astra is also trained to specifically pull only the context that matters into outputs, instead of repeating information unnecessary for the work at hand. All this means it can output more immediately usable artifacts that match your business context and standards. [...] GPT‑6 Astra brings together years of research and big bets across pre-training, reinforcement learning, and alignment. Astra is state-of-the-art on computer use, browsing, software engineering, cybersecurity, science, and professional work. Astra saturates FrontierMath Tier 4 with a 98% score, having already helped solve long-standing open problems⁠ in mathematics. Astra also saturates ARC-AGI-3 with a 99.9% score and ExploitBench with a 100% score. It also sets a new frontier on computer and browser use, handling the most demanding professional work with unmatched speed, accuracy, and judgment. [...] GPT‑6 Astra also brings stronger visual judgment to the websites, games, applications, and renderings it builds. With Sites⁠(opens in a new window) in ChatGPT, Astra can create, host, and share websites, web apps, and games directly from a prompt. When instructions leave room for interpretation, GPT‑6 Astra is better than previous models at making the right call. It uses context to fill in routine gaps and asks focused questions when the answer could change the outcome. In Codex, it can ask asynchronously while continuing work that doesn’t depend on your reply. If you don’t respond, it proceeds with sensible assumptions where appropriate, but waits for your input on consequential decisions.

• GPT-6 Astra: Features, Benchmarks, and Pricing

  To see how the competition stacks up, check out our comparison of Claude Opus 5 and Claude Sonnet 5 and our guide to learning Claude. ## What is GPT-6 Astra? GPT-6 Astra is OpenAI's new frontier flagship, succeeding GPT-5.6 Sol as the top model for reasoning, computer use, and agentic work. OpenAI positions it around three areas: The most useful benchmark headline for practitioners is OSWorld 2.0, where Astra scores 72.6% in about 40 minutes per task, compared with GPT-5.6 Sol's 65.7% at roughly 75 minutes. That combination of higher accuracy and lower wall-clock time is the difference between an agent you babysit and one you can hand a task to. [...] ## GPT-6 Astra Pricing and Availability GPT-6 Astra is rolling out to a limited set of organizations first, then to all ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users over the coming days, plus the OpenAI API and AWS. Enterprise admins can enable it per workspace, and it is off by default at launch. Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans also get GPT-6 Astra Pro. For developers, the model is available as `gpt-6-astra` in the OpenAI API and in Amazon Bedrock. `gpt-6-astra` Standard API pricing is: For context, that is well above GPT-5.6 Terra's $2/$12 rates from our earlier coverage, and above Claude Opus 5's $5/$25. Astra is priced as a frontier reasoning and automation model, not a bulk-text workhorse. [...] The headline claims are aggressive. Astra saturates FrontierMath Tier 4 with a 97.6% score, saturates ARC-AGI-3 with a 99.9% score under OpenAI's provider adapter harness, and hits 100% on ExploitBench. It also sets a new frontier on computer and browser use, scoring 72.6% on OSWorld 2.0 at roughly 47% less time per task than its predecessor GPT-5.6 Sol. Both ARC-AGI-3 and FrontierMath Tier 4 were designed specifically to stay ahead of AI capability, so saturating them signals something qualitatively different from beating a standard leaderboard. In this article, I'll cover everything new with GPT-6 Astra, looking at the new features, exploring the benchmarks, and putting it through its paces with hands-on examples.
