These adoption and deployment observations remain context only. They do not change this model's ModelCap Index score or rank.

BES evidence selected · measured input only

The bounded 0–100 capability score blends each source’s competitive placement with its published achievement, then combines capability families. Evidence breadth adds a modest uncertainty adjustment; price and popularity are not part of benchmark-led rank.

o3: common questions

How does o3 rank among AI models?

o3 holds ModelCap Index position #74 of 352 ranked language models as of 6 November 2026, with an Index score of 62.0 (interval 57.2–66.8); evidence: measured. The Index combines public benchmark boards with published uncertainty; the methodology page explains the weighting.

How much does o3 cost per 1M tokens?

o3 is listed at $2.00 per 1M input tokens and $8.00 per 1M output tokens as of 6 November 2026. Prices come from the OpenRouter catalogue and re-observe on every refresh. For 1,000 requests using 2,000 input and 500 output tokens each, the listed rates imply $8.00 total (2M input + 0.5M output). This excludes caching, batch discounts, prompt-length tiers, tool charges and retries; verify the chosen endpoint's rate and limits before budgeting.

What is the context window of o3?

o3 has a published context window of 200K tokens (200,000). The snapshot lists a 100,000 token catalogue-declared route output cap. OpenRouter catalogue or provider-endpoint declaration. Limits can vary by provider and prompt length; a model-wide maximum has not been independently verified. The providers table lists each endpoint's context limit.

Is o3 open-weight?

No linked weights. No downloadable model weights are linked in the current source data. This does not identify every API or chat product that offers the model.

Which API providers serve o3?

One provider serves o3 through OpenRouter as of 6 November 2026: OpenAI. Each provider's price, context limit, quantization and measured uptime are in the providers table above.

Which benchmarks has o3 been evaluated on?

o3 has published results on 5 public boards tracked by ModelCap as of 6 November 2026: Arena text 1432 (#114 of 419), Arena coding 1460 (#141 of 414), ARC-AGI-2 6.5% (#175 of 280), SWE-bench 58.4% (#27 of 47) and BFCL V4 63.1 (#7 of 83). Each board page ranks every tracked model on that benchmark. The ModelCap Index scores the results its methodology admits, with published uncertainty, and shows reference boards without scoring them.

How does o3 compare with GPT-6 Luna?

o3 ranks #74 (Index 62.0) and GPT-6 Luna ranks #53 (Index 67.6) on the ModelCap Index as of 6 November 2026. The head-to-head page lines up their benchmarks, listed prices, context windows and provider counts side by side.

When was o3 released?

o3 first appeared in the catalogue on 16 Apr 2025, with a published knowledge cutoff of 2024-06-30. It is the current version in its family. Rank and price movements since then are recorded on the site's changes feed.
