GPT-6 Astra Eliminates Codex Long Context Surcharge: 1M Token Window Priced at Original Rate
2 hours ago
Beating AI News Flash: OpenAI has updated its billing rules, introducing an exception for GPT-6 Astra within Codex. Astra natively supports a 1.05 million-token context window, and inputs exceeding 272,000 tokens in Codex will no longer trigger long context surcharges. No other models get this perk. For GPT-5.4, GPT-5.5, and GPT-5.6, when using an extended context window, inputs and cached inputs are billed at 2x the standard rate once exceeding 272,000 tokens, with outputs charged at 1.5x. Astra can utilize a context window approaching 1 million tokens in Codex while still being billed at the standard token rate. This discount is exclusive to Codex, however; the API will continue to apply long context surcharges of 2x inputs and 1.5x outputs.
