GPT-5.6 Terra API model profile
Evidence snapshot:
GPT-5.6 Terra is a OpenAI model profile with a 1,050,000-token context window. The dated catalog snapshot records file, image, text modalities and interfaces for agentic, coding, file input, prompt caching, reasoning.
GPT-5.6 Terra is available under the Kendr alias kc-gpt-5.6-terra. Current account availability and customer credit quotes come from Kendr's live public model API and applicable account policy.
GPT-5.6 Terra accepts file, image, and text and returns text. The snapshot records agentic, coding, file input, prompt caching, reasoning, reasoning controls, structured output, text generation, tool calling, tools, vision, web search, and web search pricing as capabilities or interfaces.
The dated reference snapshot lists $1 input and $6 output per million tokens. Cached input is $0.1 per million tokens. The separately published provider-route reference is $2 / $12 (≤272K input; cache writes $2.50/M).
The 2026-08-12 snapshot includes 3 Artificial Analysis indexes. Publisher-reported launch results are labeled and are not presented as Kendr measurements; scores from different suites are not treated as interchangeable.
GPT-5.6 Terra ranked #17 in the cited trailing-7-day third-party catalog usage dataset as of 2026-08-12. Observed within the cited trailing-7-day third-party catalog usage dataset; this is not global AI market share.
