Provider shortlist

Use OpenAI as a model-level shortlist, not a single default choice.

Start from the cost, context, and popularity picks below, then open the model pages or head-to-head comparisons before choosing an API.

Cost pick gpt-oss-120b (free) $0 sample workload

Context pick GPT-5.6 Luna 1.05M context window

Popular pick GPT-5.6 Luna #6 popularity signal

When to avoid Verify model fit Do not choose by provider name alone. Compare model-level input price, output price, context window, release timing, and current availability before production use.
