## Questions

### How much does GPT-5.4 nano cost?

GPT-5.4 nano costs $0.20 per million input tokens, the text it reads, and $1.25 per million output tokens, the text it writes, thinking included. On a mix of 3 tokens read for each 1 written, that is $0.463 per million.

### How much does cached input cost on GPT-5.4 nano?

Text GPT-5.4 nano reads again from the cache costs $0.02 per million tokens, against $0.20 the first time. OpenAI lists no separate price for writing to the cache.

### Does GPT-5.4 nano have a batch price?

Yes. With a batch, where you send many requests and collect the answers later instead of at once, GPT-5.4 nano costs $0.10 per million tokens read and $0.625 per million written.

### What is the context window of GPT-5.4 nano?

GPT-5.4 nano holds 400K tokens at once, about 600 pages of English text, and writes up to 128K tokens in one answer. The window holds your instructions, the files you attach, the conversation so far and the answer.

### How good is GPT-5.4 nano?

GPT-5.4 nano scores 146 on the Epoch Capabilities Index, an independent score from Epoch AI that combines over 50 benchmarks, with a range of doubt from 144 to 149 (GPT-5 is 150). One score is an average; test it on 10 tasks of your own.

### Is there a cheaper model as good as GPT-5.4 nano?

Claude Haiku 5.5 from Anthropic scores 159 on the Epoch Capabilities Index, about as well or better, and costs $0.20 per million on a mix of 3 tokens read for each 1 written: GPT-5.4 nano costs 2.3 times as much. Test both on your own work before you switch.

### Should I still use GPT-5.4 nano?

It is still sold, so it keeps working, but OpenAI's newest models are GPT-6 Astra, GPT-6.1 Sol and GPT-6 Luna. Compare its price with theirs below, and run your own tasks on the newer model before you move.

### What does a support bot cost a month on GPT-5.4 nano?

At 2,000 replies a day, each reading 4,000 tokens (50 percent of them from cache) and writing 300, a support bot costs 0.082 cents a reply on GPT-5.4 nano, $48.90 a month.

### What does an AI agent task cost on GPT-5.4 nano?

One 40-turn task that reads 2,800,000 tokens in all, 90 percent of them from cache, and writes 40,000, costs 16 cents on GPT-5.4 nano. At 10 tasks a day that is $46.92 a month.
