Solar Pro 3 supports a 131K token context window (131,072 tokens total). That translates to roughly 98,304 words in a single prompt. This is large enough to process entire codebases, research papers, or long conversation histories in one shot.

Solar Pro 3 can generate up to 118K output tokens (117,964 tokens) per response. That is roughly 88,473 words. This is enough for generating complete code files, detailed reports, or long-form content in a single response.

Solar Pro 3 supports function/tool calling, structured JSON output, extended reasoning/chain-of-thought, 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.

Solar Pro 3 was developed by Upstage. It was released on January 27, 2026. You can access it through Upstage's API. Check our provider page for all models from Upstage and how they compare against each other.

Pick Solar Pro 3 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 Solar Pro 3 through Upstage'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.
