GPT-4o Mini
Low-cost, low-latency model surpassing GPT-3.5 Turbo in textual intelligence and multimodal reasoning.
Low-cost, low-latency text and multimodal reasoning
GPT-4o Mini is a text generation model developed by OpenAI and released in July 2024. It is designed to deliver low-cost, low-latency responses across a wide range of tasks, making it suitable for applications that require fast throughput or high request volumes. The model supports a 128,000-token context window and is compatible with the same range of languages as GPT-4o.
GPT-4o Mini is positioned for use cases such as real-time customer interactions, processing large volumes of context, and multimodal reasoning tasks. It performs on academic benchmarks across both textual intelligence and multimodal reasoning, outscoring GPT-3.5 Turbo and other small models in those evaluations. Its combination of speed and affordability makes it a practical choice for developers building cost-sensitive production applications.
What GPT-4o Mini supports
Large Context Window
Accepts up to 128,000 tokens of input in a single request, enabling processing of long documents, transcripts, or multi-turn conversation histories.
Low Latency Responses
Optimized for fast response times, making it suitable for real-time applications such as customer-facing chat interfaces.
Cost-Efficient Operation
Priced significantly lower than larger GPT-4 class models, allowing high-volume deployments without proportional cost increases.
Multilingual Text Generation
Supports the same range of languages as GPT-4o, enabling text generation and comprehension across diverse language inputs.
Multimodal Reasoning
Capable of reasoning over both text and image inputs, supporting tasks that combine visual and textual understanding.
Structured Output
Supports JSON mode and function calling, allowing developers to receive predictable, machine-readable responses for integration into pipelines.
