Terra
The balanced model in the GPT-5.6 series, designed for everyday work scenarios. It strikes a balance between capability and cost, positioning it as a general-purpose option within the GPT-5.6 family.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Terra is no longer limited to text generation or code completion, but engages more deeply in understanding and operating computer interfaces.
If Terra's computer-use capability reaches a usable level, the first to be affected are RPA and various efficiency tools, and automation solutions that rely on fixed scripts may be replaced by more flexible AI agents.
The information OpenAI released this time did not disclose Terra's specific parameters, benchmark results or scope of availability.
OpenAI announced on a social platform the release of version 6.1 Terra.
6.1 Terra is positioned as a capability upgrade, with the focus on "computer use".
OpenAI officially stated that Terra performs well on multiple tasks and has opened "a new era of computer use".
OpenAI uses an ordered set of code names to distinguish model tiers: Luna < Terra < Sol < Astra.
OpenAI's Terra model has officially entered the API.
According to OpenAI, the standard price of the Terra model is half that of the old Terra model.
According to OpenAI, the Terra model's score on a command-line coding benchmark is more than double that of the old version.
