In Australian dollars, the currency your card is charged in, with the published US dollar rate beside each.
For scale: 1,000 requests of about 3,000 tokens in and 1,000 out cost A$2.73 — a long prompt and a page of answer each. Every rate is published and stays the same from one request to the next. See every model.

About GPT-5.6 Luna
GPT-5.6 Luna is the cheapest tier of the GPT-5.6 family, built for what OpenAI calls cost-sensitive, high-volume workloads. It is quick — independent measurements put it at about 178 tokens a second — and it scored 82.5% on Terminal-Bench 2.1, strong for the bottom tier of a family.
GPT-6 Luna has since replaced it with similar ability and newer knowledge, so this one is for products already running on it.
What is GPT-5.6 Luna good for?
- High-volume extraction and classification.
- Light coding and command-line helper agents.
- Products already built on GPT-5.6.
Where to be careful
- Wordy: in one independent benchmark run it wrote about twice the median amount of output, and output is what you pay for.
- Replaced by GPT-6 Luna, whose knowledge is three months newer.
