News Summary

  • OpenAI's GPT-5 API costs $1.25 per 1 million tokens of input, and $10 per 1million tokens for output.
  • This pricing mirrors Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro basic subscription, which is also popular for coding-related tasks.
  • Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.1 starts at $15 per 1m input tokens and $75 per 1M output tokens.
  • Will competitors like Anthropic follow?
  • Will Google — who undercut OpenAI on pricing before — get even more affordable?
  • If so, we could be witnessing the start of a much-awaited LLM price war.
OpenAI astounded the tech industry for the second time this week by launching its newest flagship model, GPT5, just days after releasing two new freely available models under an open source license. [+3603 chars]
