Text, image, and video input are supported. Web search, web extractor, code interpreter, text-to-image search, and image-to-image search are optional built-in tools exposed through tool_* parameters. Web search, text-to-image search, and image-to-image search add $0.02 for each invoked call; web extractor and code interpreter run at no extra cost. Web extractor requires web search, and both web extractor and code interpreter require thinking. A single request can invoke a tool more than once, and each invoked call is billed. Thinking tokens are billed as output tokens.
Token pricing is tiered by prompt size and steps up above 32K and again above 256K input tokens. Cached prompt tokens are billed at the implicit cache rate for the matching tier. Web Search, Text-to-Image Search, and Image-to-Image Search are billed only when invoked.
Text-to-Image Search and Image-to-Image Search use the Image Search pricing row. Thinking tokens are billed as output tokens.
