GPT-5.4 Mini example: reading an image into JSON

The example is picked from this model's own capabilities. Drop in your key and it runs as is.

What is GPT-5.4 Mini good for?

OpenAI publishes this model; we expose it under the id "openai/gpt-5.4-mini". Its context window is 400,000 tokens, roughly 300k English words in one request. A single response can run to 128,000 tokens. On price it sits in the "mid-range" band — cheaper than 121 and dearer than 275 of the other paid models in the catalogue.

What you get on top of text in, text out: it reads images directly, which makes it a real option for invoices, forms and screenshots; it takes files such as PDFs as input; it supports tool calling, so it can invoke your own functions with valid arguments; it returns schema-valid JSON through response_format, ready to hand to your code; it has a reasoning mode that pays off on multi-step problems, maths and debugging. All of it works through the standard parameters of the official OpenAI SDK — no custom client, no wrapper. Keep in mind that reasoning tokens are output tokens and do appear on the bill.

Input runs at 259,665 toman per 1M tokens and output at 1,557,987 — output costs 6× input, so trimming the answer saves more than trimming the prompt. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 25,966 toman per 1M, which matters a lot if your system prompt is long. You are always charged for the usage the request actually reported, never for the estimate, and a failed request costs nothing.

The closest alternative with the same capabilities from a different provider is Gemini 3.5 Flash (batch), and GPT-5.4 Mini costs about the same, and its context window is smaller. Both run on the same key and the same code, so trying the other one is a single string change.

To make the figure concrete: 100,000 toman of credit buys roughly 42 thousand-word requests on GPT-5.4 Mini, and every 1,000 toman is about 423 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 1,817,652 toman in total. Filling this model's 400,000-token window costs 103,866 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.

Its nearest relative in the catalogue is "~openai/gpt-mini-latest", and choosing between those two is where most people hesitate. Both land at nearly the same price on a thousand-word request (2,363 and 2,363 toman).

OpenAI has 81 models in our catalogue; the cheapest is gpt-oss-20b (batch) at 61 toman per thousand words and the dearest GPT-5.5 Pro at 94,518. Among the less common parameters it accepts max_completion_tokens, reasoning_effort, verbosity — all through the standard request body. It does not support temperature, top_p, which most models here do, so test before switching if your code relies on them. By context size the nearest option from another provider is Llama 4 Scout at 327,680 tokens.

Where it makes sense: product chatbots and internal assistants, where cost and quality have to balance, logic puzzles and code review, pulling text and fields out of images, agents that reach out to APIs and databases, extracting data against a fixed schema, analysing a long document or codebase in one request.
