GPT-5.2
December's flagship, still callable. Its chat variant was shut down in August; the base model wasn't.
What is GPT-5.2?
GPT-5.2 is a model from OpenAI, built in the US. It's out, and you can call it today.
When did GPT-5.2 come out?
OpenAI released it on 11 December 2025. That date comes from the lab's own docs.
What does it cost, and how much context does it hold?
| Lab | OpenAI |
|---|---|
| Built in | US |
| Status | released |
| API model id | gpt-5.2 |
| Released | 11 December 2025 |
| Context window | 400K tokens |
| Max output | 128K tokens |
| Input, per 1M tokens | $1.75 |
| Output, per 1M tokens | $14.00 |
List prices per million tokens, read off the lab's own docs. Caching, batching and volume deals all cut the real number, so treat this as the ceiling. Check the source before you budget against it.
At 700 words in and 500 out, twenty times a day, that works out around $6.58 a month. Put your own numbers in, see every OpenAI price, or put it next to another model.
