GPT-6.1 Terra: Score, Price and Context Window

Where GPT-6.1 Terra from OpenAI ranks, what it costs and how much text it can read, in plain numbers with the sources.

Data updated

  • OpenAI
  • Closed weights
  • Released Oct 2026

Its score range overlaps with Claude Opus 5.5, the model just above it, so a small gap in rank is not a meaningful difference.

Best for

  • Demanding tasks: its overall Epoch score is in the top 10% of models we track.
  • Building web pages and small apps: its Arena web development rating is in the top 10%.

These lines are worked out from the numbers on this page, not from hands-on testing.

What it costs in everyday terms

List prices turned into amounts you can picture. Real bills depend on how you use it.
100 chats
$0.35
Cost of 100 chats assumes each chat sends 1,000 tokens (about 750 words) and gets 500 tokens (about 375 words) back.
A 300-page book
$0.10
Cost to read a 300-page book assumes about 100,000 input tokens and no reply. A real book varies with page size and language.
Blended price
$2.00 per 1M
Three parts input to one part output. Our own calculation for comparing models.

Assumptions: 100 chats of about 1,000 tokens in and 500 tokens back. a 300-page book of about 100,000 tokens, read once with no reply.
