ParametersA rough measure of how big the model is. More parameters usually means more capable and more expensive to run, though it is a poor guide on its own — a smaller, newer model often beats a larger, older one. | — | 1T |
Context windowHow much text the model can hold in mind at once — your question, any documents you attach, the conversation so far, and its own reply. Go past it and the earliest part falls out of view. | 1.05M | 256k |
| API pricingUSD per 1M tokens · lower wins · base tier | ||
Input priceWhat you pay for everything you send the model — your question, plus any documents or earlier conversation you include with it. | $0.10 | $1.20 |
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. | $0.50 | $6.00 |
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. | $0.01 | — |
Cheapest inputLowest input rate across third-party providers, excluding the lab itself. The cheapest endpoint may run a quantised build or a shorter context — see "Available from" on the model page. | — | $0.78Alibaba |
Cheapest outputLowest output rate across third-party providers, excluding the lab itself. May come from a different provider than the cheapest input. | — | $3.90Alibaba |

Frequently asked questions
GPT-6 Luna and Qwen3-Max don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks, so there's no direct head-to-head comparison. GPT-6 Luna is cheaper on both input and output: $0.10 vs $1.20 per million input tokens, and $0.50 vs $6.00 per million output tokens. Figures are base-tier rates. Qwen3-Max shipped 363 days before GPT-6 Luna, so benchmark comparisons should account for the intervening progress.
Context windows are 1.05M (GPT-6 Luna) vs 256k (Qwen3-Max).
