GPT-6 Luna

OpenAI's cheapest GPT-6 model, for high-volume clerical work

GPT-6 Luna is OpenAI's September 22, 2026 update to GPT-5.6 Luna, priced at $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.50 per million output, down from $0.20/$1.20. It is positioned for high-volume, tightly-defined tasks with a clear goal: summarizing documents, extracting information, and answering straightforward questions, rather than open-ended reasoning or coding. Independent testing on the DeepSWE v1.1 benchmark found Luna matches GPT-6 Sol's maximum-effort score for just $0.22 per task.

At $0.10/$0.50 per million tokens it is priced for workloads where cost per call is the entire decision, and matching Sol's benchmark score at a fraction of Sol's price on at least one measured task makes it worth trying before defaulting to a more expensive tier for simple, high-volume work.

Access via the OpenAI API at model id gpt-6-luna, or through ChatGPT. Use it for the simple, high-volume slice of your workload and route anything requiring real reasoning or coding depth to GPT-6 Sol instead.
