Editorial excerpt

GPT-5.6 Luna

AI-assisted, editorially reviewed

The fastest, lowest-cost GPT-5.6 option for high-volume workloads.

GPT-5.6 Luna is the fastest and lowest-cost tier in the family. Its accepted HLE and SWE-Bench Pro evidence keep it competitive for high-volume workflows, while difficult tasks should still be tested against Terra or Sol.
