| Version notes | Supports low, medium, and high thinking; medium is the API default. The Intelligence Index result shown here is for high thinking. The 1,048,576-token context is shared by input and output. Default synchronous output is limited to 65,536 tokens; longer output requires long decode. Accepts text, images, video, audio, and PDF input; generates text. No reviewed output-speed measurement is available for this entry. |

Language prices are USD per million tokens; input and output are billed separately. Video samples use 5s of 768P output where verified. Extra tools, reasoning, cache writes, input media, storage, and taxes can change the total. (fast) marks a published median output speed above 150 tokens/s in the linked test settings.
