    Strengths and limitations

    Strengths

    • Priced at $2.00 input and $6.00 output per million tokens.
    • 1M context supports large documents, repositories and extended conversations.
    • Supports text & reasoning and vision workloads in one model.

    Limitations

    • Real-world cost still depends on prompt length, response length and provider-specific billing rules.
    • Large context capacity does not guarantee consistent retrieval across the entire prompt.
    • Arena Elo and MMLU-Pro are directional; test accuracy, latency and reliability on your own workload before committing.

    Arena Elo, MMLU-Pro and pricing figures are illustrative; validate current vendor terms before purchase.
