GPT Audio Mini supports a 128K token context window (128,000 tokens total). That translates to roughly 96,000 words in a single prompt. This is large enough to process entire codebases, research papers, or long conversation histories in one shot.

GPT Audio Mini can generate up to 16K output tokens (16,384 tokens) per response. That is roughly 12,288 words. This is enough for generating complete code files, detailed reports, or long-form content in a single response.

GPT Audio Mini supports function/tool calling, structured JSON output, streaming responses. Function calling lets you integrate it with external APIs and tools programmatically. These capabilities determine which workflows and integrations the model can handle natively.

GPT Audio Mini was developed by OpenAI. It was released on January 19, 2026. You can access it through OpenAI's API. Check our provider page for all models from OpenAI and how they compare against each other.

Pick GPT Audio Mini when you need a budget-friendly option for high-volume, simpler tasks where you prioritize cost over peak performance. If your task is straightforward text completion or classification, a cheaper model might give you 90% of the quality at a fraction of the price. Run a quick benchmark on your actual use case before committing.

You can access GPT Audio Mini through OpenAI's API using standard HTTP requests or their official SDK. Most providers support OpenAI-compatible endpoints, so switching between models often requires changing just the model name in your API call. Streaming is supported for real-time token-by-token output. For production use, implement proper error handling, rate limiting, and cost monitoring.
