84% cheaper input price, which compounds at scale
217% faster throughput — matters for streaming UX and voice agents

Choose GPT-5 instead if: Best across-the-board quality but the most expensive token rate in the table; pick GPT-5 when reasoning depth or function-calling reliability outranks per-million-token spend.
