OpenAI: gpt-oss-safeguard-20b
🇺🇸 OpenAI · gpt-oss-safeguard-20b
Overview
OpenAI: gpt-oss-safeguard-20b is a large language model API from OpenAI, part of its gpt-oss-safeguard-20b model family. At $0.075 per million input tokens and $0.300 per million output tokens, it sits in the budget tier — among the cheaper options for high-throughput or cost-sensitive workloads. Output tokens cost about 4× as much as input, so prompt-heavy workloads run noticeably cheaper than generation-heavy ones. The 131K-token context window — around 197 pages of text — comfortably handles long documents, multi-file code, or extended conversations. 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.
