GPT-6 Astra Pro 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-6 Astra Pro good for?

GPT-6 Astra Pro comes from OpenAI; in uttapen you reach it with the model id "openai/gpt-6-astra-pro". It accepts up to 1,050,000 tokens of input per call, so a long document or several source files fit in a single request. A single response can run to 128,000 tokens. On price it sits in the "expensive" band — cheaper than 7 and dearer than 386 of the other paid models in the catalogue.

What it can do beyond plain text: 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.

Pricing is 3,462,194 toman per 1M input tokens and 17,310,968 per 1M output tokens. A 1,000-word round trip on GPT-6 Astra Pro lands near 27,005 toman. It supports cached input: repeated context is billed at 346,219 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 Claude Fable 5, and GPT-6 Astra Pro costs about the same, and its context window is larger. 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 4 thousand-word requests on GPT-6 Astra Pro, and every 1,000 toman is about 37 words of round trip. A job with one million input tokens and one million output tokens comes to 20,773,161 toman in total. Filling this model's 1,050,000-token window costs 3,635,303 toman on the input side alone, which is the real reason to keep conversation history short.

This id gets confused with "openai/gpt-6-astra-pro:batch", because the underlying model is the same. The difference is the suffix: no suffix (the standard variant) against "batch". On a thousand-word request this variant works out about 2× more expensive (27,005 against 13,503 toman). On parameters, this one takes max_completion_tokens.

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 MiMo-V2.5-Pro at 1,050,000 tokens.

Good fits: work where the quality of the answer matters more than its cost, 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.

Provider's own description

GPT-6 Astra Pro is the same underlying model as GPT-6 Astra, served with `reasoning.mode` set to `pro` for higher-quality responses on complex tasks. **Cost note:** pro mode spends far more...
