GPT-4o (Nov '24) costs $2.50 per 1M input tokens (somewhat higher than average, median: $1.88) and $10.00 per 1M output tokens (somewhat higher than average, median: $7.75), based on OpenAI's API.
Good for routine tasks; route complex reasoning and premium workloads to stronger models.
Task Fit Assessment
| Workload | Rating | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Complex reasoning & agentic workflows | viable | Intelligence score 11 handles routine reasoning but may struggle with open-ended agentic tasks. |
| High-volume chat & customer-facing | optimal | Output speed 206.8 tokens/sec and capable intelligence make this suitable for real-time chat at scale. |
| Latency-sensitive applications | optimal | TTFT 0.81s — among the lowest latencies, suitable for interactive latency-critical use cases. |
| Cost-sensitive pipelines | viable | Output pricing at $10.00 is premium. Route high-volume simple tasks to cheaper alternatives. |
Cost Pressure Analysis

AA-Omniscience Index
AA-Omniscience Index (higher is better) measures knowledge reliability and hallucination. It rewards correct answers, penalizes hallucinations, and has no penalty for refusing to answer. Scores range from -100 to 100, where 0 means as many correct as incorrect answers, and negative scores mean more incorrect than correct. · Evaluation results measured independently by Artificial Analysis
