GPT-5.6 Sol vs o3-pro

This comparison does not currently contain a protocol-matched coding benchmark for both GPT-5.6 Sol and o3-pro, so Model Markets cannot name a coding leader from pricing, context size, or capability labels alone.

GPT-5.6 Sol is $2.00 and o3-pro is $20.00 per million tokens, so GPT-5.6 Sol is cheaper on this metric. GPT-5.6 Sol is $10.00 and o3-pro is $80.00 per million tokens, so GPT-5.6 Sol is cheaper on this metric.

GPT-5.6 Sol has the larger sourced context window. GPT-5.6 Sol supports 1,050K and o3-pro supports 200K.

There is no overall benchmark winner: At least two independently verified, protocol-matched benchmarks are required for an overall winner.

Both models have the same recorded self-hosting status: unsupported. GPT-5.6 Sol is not marked open weight; o3-pro is not marked open weight.

GPT-5.6 Sol is documented with image input; o3-pro is documented with image input. This reflects supported input modalities, not vision quality.

GPT-5.6 Sol has the larger sourced maximum output: GPT-5.6 Sol supports 128K and o3-pro supports 100K output tokens.

GPT-5.6 Sol: reasoning, tool calling, and image input. o3-pro: reasoning, tool calling, and image input. Feature support does not establish relative quality.

GPT-5.6 Sol has 2 sourced provider routes; o3-pro has 2, a tie.

There is no universal value winner. Compare the input and output prices above with the matched benchmark result for your workload: cheaper tokens can be offset by different quality, token usage, latency, or provider availability.
