GPT-5.6 Sol

Flagship of the GPT-5.6 family for demanding professional work; the default model behind the gpt-5.6 alias.

  • Positioned between GPT-6 Astra and GPT-5.6 Terra; the default choice within the 5.6 family.
  • API: about 1.05M context tokens, up to 128,000 output tokens, knowledge cutoff February 16, 2026.

GPT-5.6 Terra

Balances intelligence and cost.

  • OpenAI positions Terra between Astra and Luna.
  • Fits everyday volume when Astra would be too expensive.

GPT-5.6 Luna

For cost-sensitive, high-volume workloads.

  • Roughly corresponds to the earlier nano tier in the GPT-5 family.
  • For many short requests and routine work, not for the hardest cases.

Limits

Free gives unlimited everyday text chats with GPT-5.6 Luna plus limited uploads, data analysis, image generation, voice and deep research. Go raises those limits and offers reasoning through Think with GPT-5.6 Luna; the help page states GPT-5.6 Sol and legacy models are not included, and OpenAI announces ad testing for this plan. Plus adds advanced reasoning models with GPT-6 Astra and GPT-5.6 plus expanded Astra access; Pro expands GPT-6 Astra and gives 5x or 20x more usage. Exact limits can change with system conditions. Business and Enterprise do not train on business data by default; Enterprise can contractually control retention, data residency and admin controls. For consumer offerings, OpenAI may use content for model improvement unless data controls are disabled for future conversations; Temporary Chats are deleted, do not save memory and are not used for training. API pricing and API data use do not belong to these ChatGPT plans.
