| Specifications | ||
Context windowHow much information the model can work with in one request, measured in tokens — pieces of words or other data. This includes your question, attachments, conversation and reply. Limits can vary by model variant and provider. | 400k | 1M |
| API pricingUSD per 1M tokens · lower wins | ||
Input priceWhat you pay for everything you send the model — your question, plus any documents or earlier conversation you include with it. | $0.05 | — |
Output priceWhat you pay for the text the model writes back. It is normally the dearer half: producing an answer costs more than reading one. | $0.40 | — |
Cached input priceA reduced rate for text you send over and over. If every request starts with the same instructions or the same document, the provider keeps a copy ready and charges less to read it again. | $0.005 | — |
Cheapest inputLowest input rate across every provider on OpenRouter, the lab included. The cheapest endpoint may run a quantised build or a shorter context — see "Available from" on the model page. | $0.025OpenAI | — |
Cheapest outputLowest output rate across every provider on OpenRouter, the lab included. May come from a different provider than the cheapest input. | $0.20OpenAI | — |

Humanity's Last Exam · no toolsMultidisciplinary reasoning — Humanity's Last Exam — extremely hard expert questions across many subjects, written so you can't just look up the answer. “No tools” means the AI answers on its own. Higher is better. | 8.7% | — |
AIME 2025Reasoning — single-answer accuracy on the 2025 invitational mathematics exam without tools | 85.2% | — |
GPQA DiamondScience — Graduate-level science questions in biology, physics, and chemistry — hard enough that subject-matter PhDs score around 65%. Higher is better. | 71.2% | — |
CharXiv Reasoning · with toolsChart reasoning — The same chart-and-figure reasoning test, run with the AI allowed to use tools — writing code to inspect the image, for instance — rather than reading the chart unaided. Scores run higher than the unaided version, so read the two as separate tests. Higher is better. | 62.7% | — |
MMMU-Pro · standard and vision meanMultimodal reasoning — average across the standard and vision sets | 62.6% | — |
MMMUMultimodal — Tests the AI on understanding images and text together across many college subjects. Higher is better. | 75.6% | — |

GPT-5 nano and Qwen4-Max Preview don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks, so there's no direct head-to-head comparison. Only GPT-5 nano has a verified first-party price for an available API: $0.05 per million input tokens and $0.40 per million output tokens. No currently available pay-as-you-go API rate is tracked for Qwen4-Max Preview. GPT-5 nano shipped 461 days before Qwen4-Max Preview, so benchmark comparisons should account for the intervening progress.
Context windows are 400k (GPT-5 nano) vs 1M (Qwen4-Max Preview).
Direct benchmark comparisons are unavailable — GPT-5 nano and Qwen4-Max Preview don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks.
