GPT-6 Sol benchmarks

GPT-6 Sol is a proprietary model from OpenAI, released 22 Sep 2026. It ranks 8th of 51 on our overall leaderboard and 8th of 51 for reasoning, though some of its results are not yet published. At A$5.62 per million tokens (blended), it costs 1.6× the median model we track. It writes about 126 tokens a second, and answers start after 1.7 min on average, thinking included. It can be called from Microsoft Azure in Australia East, but only through global routing, so requests may be processed outside Australia.

§ 06 — QUESTIONS

GPT-6 Sol, answered.

GPT-6 Sol lists at US$2.00 per million input tokens and US$10.00 per million output tokens — A$2.81 and A$14.04 at A$1 = US$0.7123 (RBA, 22 Sep 2026), excluding GST. A typical customer support reply works out at about A$9.83 per 1,000 replies, before any reasoning tokens.

GPT-6 Sol can be called from Microsoft Azure in Australia East, but only through global routing, so requests may be processed outside Australia. Availability comes from the cloud providers’ own documentation; check your provider’s current terms before relying on it for data-residency obligations.

Artificial Analysis measures GPT-6 Sol at about 126 tok/s of output, with the answer starting after 1.7 min on average once thinking time is included (max effort setting).

OpenAI documents a context window of 1,050,000 tokens (1.05M), with up to 128,000 output tokens. On AA-LCR, which tests reasoning across ~100,000-token document sets, it scores 83.7%.
