OpenAI: GPT-3.5 Turbo
🇺🇸 OpenAI · GPT-3.5 Turbo
Overview
OpenAI: GPT-3.5 Turbo is a large language model API from OpenAI, part of its GPT-3.5 Turbo model family. Priced at $0.500 per million input tokens and $1.50 per million output tokens, it occupies the mid-range, balancing capability against running cost. Output tokens cost about 3× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. The 16K-token context window — around 25 pages of text — comfortably handles long documents, multi-file code, or extended conversations. On Artificial Analysis's Intelligence Index it scores 4 (F grade), a useful proxy for its general reasoning strength relative to the other models tracked here. All prices on this page reflect OpenRouter's routed rates and are re-synced automatically every day; confirm against the provider's official pricing before committing to production.
