Amazon Bedrock announces reduced pricing for OpenAI GPT-5.6 Sol
OpenAI reduced API pricing for GPT-5.6 Sol by 20% for input tokens and 33.3% for output tokens, effective through November 21, 2026, via Amazon Bedrock.
OpenAI has lowered the pricing for its GPT-5.6 Sol model, reducing input token costs to $4 per million and output tokens to $20 per million. The price cuts, effective immediately, represent a 20% reduction for inputs and a 33.3% reduction for outputs compared to prior rates. This promotional pricing will remain in effect at least through November 21, 2026, according to the company’s announcement.
The reduced pricing applies to Amazon Bedrock, where GPT-5.6 Sol is available for developers building applications. AWS customers can access the updated rates through Amazon Bedrock’s pricing model, which integrates OpenAI’s API directly into the service. The change follows earlier reductions for other models such as Terra and Luna, signaling a broader trend toward more competitive pricing in the AI services market.
GPT-5.6 Sol is positioned as a high-performance model for agentic coding tasks, delivering state-of-the-art results on relevant benchmarks. The lower pricing is intended to make the model more accessible for high-volume workloads, enabling developers to scale experiments and deployments without proportional cost increases. AWS emphasizes the model’s suitability for complex, multi-step workflows in research and automation.
Developers can check regional availability of GPT-5.6 Sol on the AWS Regions page and review detailed pricing and documentation on the Amazon Bedrock site. The updated pricing structure applies globally where the model is supported, providing a cost-effective option for sustained AI-driven projects. AWS advises users to consult the official documentation for the most current information on regions and pricing.
