Quick start

Call GPT 5.4 with the OpenAI Python SDK:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    max_tokens=800,
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Your prompt here"}]
)
# Cost: ~$0.0195 per call at standard rates
# Input:  $2.50/MTok
# Output: $15.00/MTok

What drives json extraction cost

Structured JSON output is compact and predictable, so cost is set almost entirely by how much source text you send. The schema itself is identical on every call and belongs in the cached prefix. This is also a task where a smaller model often matches a larger one: the output space is constrained by the schema, which limits how wrong a cheaper model can go.

For GPT 5.4 specifically, that means output tokens cost 6.0x more than input, at $15.00 vs $2.50 per MTok. At this use case’s 3,000/800 token split, output accounts for 62% of the $0.0195 per-call cost.

Prompt caching: 90% off input tokens

Caching drops input cost from $2.50 to $0.25/MTok. For repeated system prompts, that saves $0.006750 per call.

Batch API: 50% off all tokens

Submit requests asynchronously and receive 50% off all token costs. This works best for offline pipelines where latency requirements are flexible.

Frequently asked questions

How much does GPT 5.4 cost for json extraction per API call?

A typical json extraction call using GPT 5.4 costs about $0.0195 per call. This estimate uses 3,000 input tokens and 800 output tokens at standard rates. Standard rates are $2.50 per million input tokens and $15.00 per million output tokens.

Is GPT 5.4 the best model for json extraction?

GPT 5.4 scores 89 out of 100 on json extraction benchmarks overall. It ranks #1 across all 20 models in our cross-provider registry. The highest-ranked model for this task is GPT 5.6 Terra from GPT. That model scores 90/100 on this task type. Confidence scores are a third-party benchmark snapshot from week 29 of 2026. This snapshot is 8 weeks old, so treat the scores as directional and validate against your own evals.

What is the cheapest model for json extraction with good quality?

The most affordable model for json extraction above 80/100 quality is GPT 5.6 Luna. It comes from GPT at $0.20 per million input tokens. Output costs $1.20 per million tokens with a quality score of 89/100. Switching from GPT 5.4 to GPT 5.6 Luna saves about 92% per API call.

How can I reduce my GPT 5.4 costs for json extraction?

Three strategies lower GPT 5.4 costs for this task type effectively. Prompt caching gives a 90% discount on input tokens when reusing system prompts. The batch API gives 50% off all tokens for asynchronous processing workloads. Prompt optimization reduces token counts through more concise instructions and context windows. Combining caching with batching brings your cost from $0.0195 to about $0.000975 per call.

How does GPT 5.4 pricing compare to other GPT models?

GPT has 4 other models alongside GPT 5.4 today: GPT 5.5 at $5.00/$30.00 per million tokens (flagship), GPT 5.6 Sol at $4.00/$20.00 per million tokens (flagship), GPT 5.6 Terra at $2.00/$12.00 per million tokens (mid-tier), GPT 5.6 Luna at $0.20/$1.20 per million tokens (fast / budget). The right choice depends on whether your json extraction workload prioritizes quality, cost, or speed.

What context window does GPT 5.4 support?

GPT 5.4 supports a context window of 1,050K tokens per API call. This sets the maximum combined length of your input prompt and generated response. For json extraction, typical calls use 3,000 input and 800 output tokens. That is well within this limit, leaving room for longer prompts or multi-turn conversations.
