What is GPT-6 Luna?

GPT-6 Luna is the cheapest and fastest model in OpenAI’s GPT-6 family, released on 22 September 2026 with GPT-6 Sol. OpenAI afferma that at higher effort levels it matches GPT-5.6 Sol on factuality at about a hundredth of the cost, and that at max effort it scores 66.6% on DeepSWE v1.1.

API pricing is $0.10 per million input tokens and $0.50 output (GPT-5.6 Luna: $0.20 / $1.20), with cached input at $0.01. OpenAI’s developer documentation lists a 1,050,000-token context window, up to 128,000 output tokens, text and image input, and a knowledge cutoff of 18 May 2026. Free and Go ChatGPT users can use Luna in the ChatGPT desktop app.

Domande frequenti

How much does GPT-6 Luna cost per 1M tokens?

GPT-6 Luna costs $0.100 per 1M input tokens and $0.500 per 1M output tokens. At a typical 4:1 input-to-output mix that blends to about $0.180 per 1M tokens.

How much does GPT-6 Luna cost per month?

A small-team workload of 20M input and 5M output tokens a month costs about $4.50 on GPT-6 Luna. A side project (1M in / 0.25M out) costs roughly $0.23.

What is a cheaper alternative to GPT-6 Luna?

Mistral 7B is the strongest cheaper option in our database at $0.0220 per 1M blended — about 88% less than GPT-6 Luna. It is also open-weight, so self-hosting is an option.

Can I run GPT-6 Luna locally?

No. GPT-6 Luna is a closed, API-only model — the weights are not released, so it cannot be self-hosted.

Why does GPT-6 Luna charge more for output than input?

Output tokens are generated one at a time and cannot be batched the way a prompt can, so they cost the provider more to serve. GPT-6 Luna charges 5× more for output, which is why prompt-heavy workloads are far cheaper to run than generation-heavy ones.

I prezzi indicati sono le tariffe ufficiali pubblicate per l'API principale del modello e vengono aggiornati man mano che i fornitori li modificano. Sconti per volumi elevati, elaborazione batch e input memorizzati nella cache non sono inclusi. Confronta tutti i modelli fianco a fianco nel Database di modelli IA o il Classifica LLM.
