GPT-6 Astra

GPT-6 Astra is an OpenAI reasoning model for demanding coding, research, computer use, and document creation. It is designed to work through complex tasks from an initial request to a completed result. Its published context window is 1,050,000 tokens. The advertised input rate is $10.00 per million input tokens. The advertised output rate is $50.00 per million output tokens. Additional pricing brackets apply when the input exceeds a published context threshold.

crossing a threshold applies that bracket to the whole request. cache creation can have a separate charge.

rates are published by the impossibl api. balance-purchase fees, taxes, tool charges, and workspace-specific pricing are separate.

estimated usage cost

1,000 requests × (1,000 uncached input × $10.00 + 500 output × $50.00) / 1,000,000 = $35.00

base rates: up to 272,000 input tokens per request, inclusive.

estimates use published impossibl api usage rates. configured billing adjustments, funding fees, taxes, and custom workspace rates are excluded and may change the final amount.

image and audio usage, cache creation, and additional tool charges are excluded. reasoning tokens count as billable output, even when they are not visible in the response.
