Where is the GPT-6 Astra (batch) documentation?

The GPT-6 Astra (batch) documentation on OpenRouter includes the GPT-6 Migration Guide cookbook. The quickstart covers API keys and your first request, and the API reference lists every parameter.

How much does GPT-6 Astra (batch) cost?

GPT-6 Astra (batch) costs $5.00/M input tokens and $25.00/M output tokens, with separate rates for Cache Read at $0.50/M tokens, Cache Write at $6.25/M tokens, and Web Search at $10.00/1K calls.

What is the context length of GPT-6 Astra (batch)?

GPT-6 Astra (batch) has a 1,050,000 token context window. It supports up to 128,000 completion tokens.

Does GPT-6 Astra (batch) support tool calling and structured outputs?

Yes. GPT-6 Astra (batch) accepts tools and tool_choice for function calling. It also supports structured outputs via a JSON schema in response_format.

Can I disable prompt caching for GPT-6 Astra (batch)?

Yes. OpenAI caches prompts of 1024 tokens or more automatically, and GPT-6 Astra (batch) bills a cache write on each cached prompt whether or not the cached prefix is read again. To turn caching off for a request, set prompt_cache_options.mode to "explicit" at the request root and do not mark any content block with prompt_cache_breakpoint. Explicit mode disables OpenAI-managed breakpoints, so a request with none of your own has no cacheable prefix and is billed at the plain input rate. See the prompt caching guide.

What inputs and outputs does GPT-6 Astra (batch) support?

GPT-6 Astra (batch) accepts files such as PDFs, images, and text as input and returns text.

Which providers serve GPT-6 Astra (batch)?

GPT-6 Astra (batch) is served by 1 provider on OpenRouter: OpenAI.

What other text models does OpenAI have?

GPT-6.1 Terra Pro, GPT-6.1 Terra, GPT-6 Luna Decisions and 58 more are other text models from OpenAI.

When was GPT-6 Astra (batch) released?

GPT-6 Astra (batch) was released on September 4, 2026.

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

Not enough uptime data to display yet.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and provider routing options.

GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst

GPT Image 2.6 Sunburst is OpenAI's image generation and editing model optimized for detail: dense compositions, text-heavy layouts, and edits that keep details consistent from one edit to the next at medium or high quality, generating about 50% faster than GPT Image 2.5. It takes text and image inputs and produces images, with quality tiers from low to max, transparent backgrounds, and custom sizes in multiples of 16 pixels at aspect ratios from 1:3 to 3:1. GPT Image 2.6 introduces a complexity setting for how much the model plans before rendering, markup-guided edits, animated GIF output, and SVG output. Choose Flare instead when speed matters more than fine detail.

GPT Image 2.6 Flare is OpenAI's image generation and editing model optimized for speed: fast iteration and interactive text-to-image and image-to-image workflows, generating about 50% faster than GPT Image 2.5. It takes text and image inputs and produces images, with quality tiers from low to max, transparent backgrounds, and custom sizes in multiples of 16 pixels at aspect ratios from 1:3 to 3:1.

GPT-6.1 Terra Pro

GPT-6.1 Terra Pro is the same underlying model as GPT-6.1 Terra, served with reasoning.mode set to pro for higher-quality responses on complex tasks.

Cost note: pro mode spends far more reasoning tokens per request, so a typical request costs several times more than the same request on GPT-6.1 Terra and takes much longer to complete. It is intended for hard, high-stakes problems where the extra accuracy justifies the cost. For everyday coding, agentic, and chat workloads, use GPT-6.1 Terra instead.

GPT-6 Luna Decisions

GPT-6 Luna Decisions is GPT-6 Luna served through OpenAI's Decisions API. Instead of generating text, it reads the content passed as state (text, JSON, or images) and returns typed, probabilistic answers to named questions in a single request: the probability of yes for a yes/no question (noul), a probability for every option plus the most likely one (choice), or a probability for every level of an ordered rubric plus the expected score (score).

It is built for classification, routing, moderation, and rubric grading where application code thresholds the returned numbers rather than parsing a chat reply. A request can carry up to 200 questions about the same content.

GPT-6.1 Sol is an upgrade to GPT-6 Sol from OpenAI, positioned below the flagship GPT-6 Astra in the GPT-6 series. It is suited for agentic coding, computer use, document-heavy professional work, and multi-step business workflow automation, and approaches Astra-level results on these tasks at a much lower cost. Compared with GPT-6 Sol, it makes fewer factual errors and is more reliable at respecting explicit restrictions and user intent during agentic tasks.
